My uncle and I are doing one right now, if you scroll down the page a bit you will see it. I can tell you this there is a lot of custom fabricating to be done and if you want to make it easy on yourself, get a carb model lol

Its really not that hard what i did was i bought a gslse front cover and oil pan and made the mounts on the front more room to mess around, i cut the oil pan and did some simple mods. As for the transmission i modified the fb mounts and welded up brackets. Drive shaft had to be cut around 3 inches i used one from a 12a fb it fits perfect on the diff.
