G body swap ?s

Starting on a g body that is going to be getting a 6.0 with a mild cam. It will not have ac and I'm looking for other accesories bracket options other than the massive truck bracket. I do plan on running a car intake manifold. Any help is appreciated.

Do you have the 605 box that was used on the majority of G-body cars, or the quick ratio 700 series box that was used on the performance model G-bodies (Monte Carlo SS, Grand National). What set-back are your swap plates advertised to have?

Do yourself a favor and just return any parts you've already bought and buy all of the Hooker/ Holley g body swap parts. You'll save time, headaches and have a cleaner and better engineered swap when finished.
