6.0 to sm465 (1970 gmc long bed)

Good evening everyone

I'll get to it....I was originally going to mount my 6.0 behind a zf-60 s40 vette transmission. The reason was because I haven't seen a build like it, but due to budget restrictions, that build (just for the motor to transmission modification) is out of my price range.

So after running some numbers over some nice cigars, I've decided it would be more cost effective to mount it behind the original sm465.

The motor has been rebuilt from the bottom up to apply some form of forced induction onto the motor later on. Which at that point, the sm465 (for my needs) will need to be replaced. That time is in the future at some point. The main objective is to get the driving.
Once the time comes for the forced induction, I'll be switching the transmission over to a Tremec TKO/Magnum. Again, that's in the future(after college).


I'm positive there's articles out there about the swap, but I'm leaning on everyone's expertise that has direct access to that knowledge. With that being said, I'm in need of the parts list to make the mount happen....or if there's a build article that's been compiled, id greatly appreciate the link.

Have a great evening,

P.S. if anyone has a need or a 91 vette tranny ( I GOT THE HOOKUP)
