Same here slid the engine back until it ,matched the seal mark on the driveshaft
The shift linkage matched up also with the TH350 part placed on the 4L60E C10 short bed

You mentioned that you build the wiring harnesses, do you have a website or link? I’ve got a 68 C10 I’m putting together and want to do an LS swap on soon. Having an ready to go harness would be so much easier I think.

My factory drive shaft slid right into the tranny and is the correct length! I adjusted the motor foward/back to get it to work with the tranny. Factory 5.3 exhaust manifolds fit with some minor trimming of the frame. Factory a/c fits but the a/c lines would need some work to fit around the frame. Tomorrow will be the first start and will post more pics.
