318/8 Speed Swap

ChevelleGuy,
Yes, thanks for all the pics/info. Do you know what drive line angles you have, front and back? I am wondering with the CV joint should you maintain a close to 0 or very small degree down on the transmission side and maybe less than 4 degrees up on the rear differential side. Also, your 1" thick drum, that is the same thickness of both plates? I am thinking out loud here, trying to see if any spacers are necessary when mounting the torque converter to a non hemi small block flex plate. Or, to use the hemi flex plate as it has the correct hole for the converter snout and can use the hemi starter, since the transmission will directly bolt to the non hemi block. I would assume I would need to redrill it to match my crankshaft.
