There are 2 ways to do it. Either make the chevy bellhousing bolt pattern in the M's engine plate, Chevy flywheel, clutch, and hides inside the M bellhousing. Space is tight for the starter, maybe a bellhousing mounted stater, like the old 283-327 chevys with a powerglide tranny. It is like a 3 bolt mounted stater, found on the big blocks, and small blocks, I found one on a 62 Impala with a 283/powerglide. Other option is to mount the entire 4 speed bellhousing to the engine plate, then you have room for the starter, which mounts to the chevy bellhousing. You can have a clutch plate made to have the M spline on the imput shaft, and still fit the chevy clutch. Basicly 4 bolts on the bellhousing and engine plate, a input shaft bearing, and a pilot bearing made, or the M shaft turned down to fit a chevy pilot bushing. Then, what ever front engine mounts you choose to make. The 4 speed bellhousing moves the engine forward more,, mite help balance it,, A fellow a while back posted pictures of one he had done, and it was Sweet!!! if he is still around, maybe he would post a picture or two again? Hope this helps, ChadS
