Default How to put an early style GM trans behind your LS motor

I know this has been discussed here a few times. Putting an auto behind it is straightforward, flexplate/crank spacer and done, usually even the bolt holes on the converter and very close (old style is 11.75" new is 11.80"). Therefore, I was digging through some of my old mags, found an old CC article on how to do just this, and figured I would share. BTW, the GM crank/flexplate spacer is superior to the others.
