How to Build DIY Transmission Crossmember for CHEAP!

Did you see my Abandoned Project Truck Rescue? • RESCUING an Abandoned ...
The TH400 is finally mounted in the car! I was able to use the original Datsun Transmission Crossmember without having to cut or modify it whatsoever. I did some custom fabricating to make it work with a modern transmission. It was a great opportunity to do some Tig Welding for my first time as well!

How's the bell housing fitment with that th400? What engine mounts did you use or did you make them?

[@LooseFab]

Fits great! All the bolts line up 9n the bellhousing to the LS except for one which is unused. I used dirty dingo engine mounts, I'm really happy with the quality of them so far. Tons of adjustability for engine placement with them as well
