The simple bolt-on solution now days would be to R/R a 66
or newer K frame on a 65 or older B body, that should make everything
work. The issue, be it small, will be the Engine &
Transmission will be moved back almost two inches closer to the
firewall. The plus is weight transfer, the negative is access to
the plug at the back of the intake and heater hoses will be tight.
You will also have to modify your cross member to fit your tranny
mount. The other issue I had was the oil filter. I had to
use the 90 degree adapter and a smaller 83501080 filter. Use that
# to cross to the filter of your choice. Or if you like, a remote
filter setup to use a full size filter. When fabricating my mounts
giving the filter room left the engine with a nose up attitude, leveling
it out restricted filter room, so I had to find a happy medium that fit
& looked right. I thought I read not long ago that TTI made
mounts for 62 - 65. Just looked, they do now Part #57SMB625,
probably disregard 1/2 I wrote. It also appears your going to Have
to use a remote filter setup with TTI mounts. Well, if your
building a cruiser, use this. If your looking for speed go the 66
or newer route. I would go into other areas such as fuel system
but with advances in technology what I fabricated is probably out dated
today. I fabricated a in tank mounted pump. Using
my old fuel line as a pattern I bent duel fuel lines the larger supply
& a smaller return that looks great & almost stock from the
underside( I am glad I did take the effort) feel free to ask any
questions I can tell you how I did it or problems I ran into.

I thought the TTI kit was for 1966 - 1972 B Body?
Thanks,
