There were no provisions to bolt the starter directly to the engine. Therefore you will need a special adaptor plate to use the later transmissions. They can be purchased from several aftermarket sources but will add to the cost of the conversion. You also will need to modify the driveshaft, install an oil cooler, and install a rear crossmember.
