Carshop 1in setback plates, stock curved 5.3 flexplate with crank spacer. You'll need sbc clamshell mounts and v8 perches.

I have a spare 5.3 flexplate I would sell if you need it.

Also in a PM you asked which accessories will work .. truck accessories fit great in a G body as long as you have 1in setback plates to clear the ps pulley/ps box. I'm even running a truck fan and clutch with the stock v8 rad and fan shroud. Fits perfect.
