Need some final information on my project 70 c20 2wd

Hello all,
After copious ammounts of searching I am left with a few questions, and I am hoping someone could give me some answers


The truck as it sits in a 2wd c20 with a 350, th350, Dana 60 Rear end.

I Have a p-pump 6bt and a 4l80e with the US Shift computer (Have yet to purchase adapter plate from PATC in case this goes south)

As I understand it I will need some modifications to the transmission x member and a new drive line to fit the 4l80e, and I am confident in my ability to complete this part.

My confusion lies with the engine mounts and crossmember.

What is my best option? I would make them+ myself but I have never fabricated anything. I have some friends that can weld and fabricate if need be but I would like something I can purchase and bolt in (even if I have to make new holes), all I can find is for 73+ will these work?

Also what is the best way to find the engine position for its final resting place, so I don't put the crossmember or mounts too far forward or back?


If I missed something, please post a link, my apologies.

Thanks,
Cody

Cody, call Dawna at Auto World conversions for your cross member and mounts. They have them for the 67-72's. They are the best to deal with on these IMO.
