Default Torque arm for TH400

IO am currently in the process of gathering parts for a th400 swap and i read somewhere you can not use the stock torque because there is no mount on the trans for it, My question is this true, and what are my options for a torque if it is?

hurst makes an adapter for it so you can use the stock TA if you what. if sells for like 125 in jegs. it says it is for a 3rd gen but still works fine. it will also come with a crossmember to mount a TH400 into a 3rd gen but you will not need it.

BMR makes an adjustable torque arm that welds to the frame, thats another option i may take instead of buying that adapter. (im also about to make the swap) Dont mean to hijack the post, but does the stock crossmembers work with the th400 to?

im going broke buying all these extra things to get this transmission to fit, lol. All new drivetrain parts u need to get it to bolt in costs almost as much as the transmission and torque converter together.
