A slight adjustment to Stuart's comment:

If you use a Chevy pattern TH400 you'll need an adapter plate, with starter mount.

If you use a BOP pattern TH400 you'll need a starter mount plate (no adapter). Bendsten is where I got mine, but there is a drawing in Pete's book if you prefer to make your own.
