700R4 Transmission mount - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey All,
I'm installing an engine (350) and trans (700R4) out of an 1985 Chevy Suburban into my 1970 Chevy. I got everything sitting in the frame right now loose. How level should the combination be? Right now it is sitting lower at the rear. I think it might be too low. Can I use the original trans mount? I know I need to move it from where it was. I looked around the web and I found a custom 700R4 mount for around $180. I'm handy with a torch and wire feed welder and I should be able to modify mine whether I need to go up or down.

Anyone ever done this?
