465/205 to th350/205 Swap Questions

Got a call from a friend in Invermere who has a 72 K20, that as of today has a broken pressure plate. He is seriously thinking of swapping in an auto. Figures he has access to some of the bits required (auto column/linkage etc) but his question was how late you could go with the 350 and still have the right 'body'? He wondered '79, I said I don't know but I know who will! Anyone?
My question is then the length issue. Where does all this this sort out. I've searched and can't find anything definative. Are there two adapter lengths meaning long adapter and 465 is the same as a 350?
So besides auto column/linkage you need-
Neutral safety wiring
flexplate/starter
27 spline deal on the 205
And?? I'm going to PM Ironhorse, anyone else done all this?
