Post 84 C10 TH350 Cross member to a 700r4 mount???????

Hello, I have a sorta dumb question. I just installed a 93 700r4 in my 84 C10 today and I was wondering if I can simply move the factory TH 350 cross member down a little and re-drill the mounting holes or do I ne to FAB one out of cold roll pipe? Cross member that is. I am re-placing the tail shaft on the 700 with one from a B-Body it has provisions for the tranny mount. The 700r4 came from a 93 corvette and was re-built with extra clutches and so called waffle style race style clutches, any one ever heard of those? Is this a good tranny for a HP application 362ci SBC w/ NO2?? Using a YANK converter 3800 lock up stall w/xtreme 284 cam.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

IMO, either would work, depends on the work you want to do, you wanna drill or fabricate, i swapped a 700r4 in my camaro and just drilled, i'll let you know if i have any problems.

Just support the trans at the proper mounting height and angle, check to make sure the crossmember is at the proper installed distance from the transmission and redrill the frame.
