Similar to what I did but mine is behind a 327. I bought the input shaft and had Garage Motorsports in Vancouver swap the shafts. I still had to trim a small amount off the input shaft de but that was easy with a micrometer measured from the mating surface of the bell housing to mating surface of the input shaft at the crank. I've put on a few hundred miles with 0 issues except my clutch linkage interferes with my brake linkage. I have an idea to remedy this.
