isn't the car trans spacing [height] different from the truck unit? if i remember right the truck unit is about an inch taller. if redrilling is necessary i'd use a blowproof [steel] unit.
also use mid 70's g/p or fullsize engine stands. they will raise the engine up higher than the t/a units and will give the pan more clearance for the front axle.you'll want to use the 4x4 frame mounts and not 2wd truck mounts. the 2wd mounts are too tall for the application.
3x2s, i dont think the 86 models have the olds holes in the frame as that engine was discontinued in 81. the std chevy holes line up with either the g/p or the fullsize stands though. mike
