Very true, the only thing I don't know much about is flexplate spacing and if it would need modified. I did find a place online that actually makes custom adapter plates along with any spacers you may need. They say they can make an adapter for any engine/transmission combo out there pretty much, so I think i'll shoot them an e-mail and see what they can do.

It looks like it would be around $450 to have a custom one made for our application.
