The trans bolts right up. You'll either need to make some custom dowel pins for the block, or open up the holes in the transmission. For mock up purposes, just punch the pins out and use the 4 M10 bolts. The adapter you speak of can either be made, or get one from tci or hughes. I have all of the dimensions.920-660-6895G-BUDDY said:
One of the trans bolts doesn't bolt up the the Gen III/IV engines. I would assume the adapter would fix that. However you don't need the bolt considering most don't use an adapter.

The adapter I spoke of pilots your old style torque converter into the LS crank. about $35 from a supplier. 4 of the bellhousing bolts can be used very easily, that's all you need. Sorry about the confusion.
For mock up purposes, you don't need the converter installed-just bolt them together.
