72 Big Block Auto to 4 Speed

I posted this question in the drivetrain section above and didnt get to far so I am trying here...Need some help please.

I did a search for this and all I could really find was 6 cyl to V8 Small Block Swaps. I am compiling parts for the swap...here is what I have.

V8 Manual Crossmember
Pedals
Straight push rod from pedal to Bell Crank
Ball pivot on block
Long and short bell cranks with straight ends
Bell crank pivot w/slight bend in middle
High Hump 4 speed cover

Need:

Shift Boot with Ring (angled in front)
Clarification on Clutch Linkage

Here's my questions...

1. I have 6 cyl + Small block Linkage setups. It looks like there is a straight rod from pedal to bellcrank for 6 cyl and some V8 motors??? It also looks like there is a bent rod for other V8 applications? Which one is required for the big block?

2. What pivot ball do I need on the block...There is just the screw in ball (which I have) and the ball mounted to a plate that bolts to to bolt holes in block? Any idea on which one would be required...

3. Will the factory Big Block motormount perches stay in same location?

4. It looks like the exhaust might be a little tricky due to Tranny Crossmember on right side (Stock Manifolds)?

If anybody has done this or has some information that would be really great.

Thanks, Alan
