So im looking for info putting a B.O.P TH400 behind my new 5.3 setup going into a gbody.... i cant really find anything. I read somewhere that a chevy th400 bolts right up 2 a 5.3?
all info would be great

The chevy th400 should bolt up using five bellhosing bolts as long as the stock flexplate is there and it has either the spacer or the longer crank. You'll probably have to elongate the holes in the converter to get the flexplate to bolt up.
Or if you're going to get a high stall converter talk to the builder.
Very good idea to bolt this up on the ground as a test fit before you go too far, there has been a lot of conflicting information on this since GM changed the flexplate/spacer/crank somewhere around the year you have.

now could i do an ultrabell? or is there even a ultra bell offered for ls stuff. and then just have a company build a convertor to fit my setup?
I've seen a th400 with an LS1 bellhousing. I don't think it was an Ultrabell, maybe Rossler?
And yes defineatly let your converter company know what you're doing, this way they can recommend parts that they know work.
PS I said elongate the holes in the converter, I meant holes in the flexplate for the converter.
