Post 5 speed to a Flathead?

Does anyone know of a company that makes adaptors for a 5 speed to a V-8 flathead ford? I am looking to build a T-bucket on the cheap and there are tons of five speeds in everything from F-bodies to Mustangs to S-10s and rangers in local junk yards. Also does anybody have a sugestion as which to use. I already have the flatty just looking for a running gear. Any help or advice would be a big help.
Thank You,
Cory

There is a company that makes adapters for this. The name excapes me at the present. They advertise in Street Rodder magazine. Saw them at the Nationals in KY too.

Most folks use the S10 5 speed because the shifter is farther foward on them than a Mustang.
