I'm just about done with the swap. Heres what I've discovered...
The shifter indeed must be bent down a few degrees.
Foot room is very limited, so I cut a chunk out of the tranny hump and added about 3 inches.
Also I switched over to a cable throttle pedal to get rid of the mechanical linkage.
The original dirveshaft fit without any modification.
I used angle iron to relocate the trans mount. I used the auto trans crossmember It is bolted to the top of the angle iron which located it properly for driveshaft alignment.
I should have it back on the road in a few days and am looking forward to crusing in style.
