I put a 69 Nova under a 49 Suburban. I bought the clip at a swap meet for $ 200. I completely rebuilt it with new bushings, disc turned, new calipers, etc for $175, did all the mock up work myself, and had a certified welder put it in for $50 and a case of beer I helped drink. I then was able to use standard GM motor mounts and not have to fab up anything. I will say the MKII is a "cleaner" look but subframe is a viable option no one ever thinks of. Little more work but if done correctly I think the cheapest way to go.
