The 700R4 and 4L60E are very similar but the cross member on the 60 sits back about an inch or so than the 700. I know this cause I did what you were talking about doing. Thankfully the mounts I have are bolt in and not welded. I was also thinking about getting my drive shaft sized with the 700, good thing I didn't. I got a 99 4L60E from a suburban with the torque converter from a local salvage yard for about $300. How far are you from Hitterdal, MN? I got my engine from there, found on CL for about $550 with everything I need to make the engine run. I am sure they would have a couple of 60's laying around.
