I did this swap, we notched the cross member, set the engine back and down.. used an auto trans.. your best bet is set it and trans in take measurements then fab and tack mounts in.. I ran a standard fan but electric is better, no engine drag and more clearance. Keep us posted.

700R4 trans will be your best bet.
It has overdrive and a locking torque convertor that can be wired up without a computer.
