I know that TCI sells a th700r4 that looks like a good candidate. Yearone sells an adapter plate for the 700r4 to the back of the engine as well as a shifter conversion kit. Would the drive shaft need modification for this to work. would a different torque converter be needed? What else would need to be done?
Thanks for the help!!!

Shop around for the adapter plate - lots of vendors sell them. Try Summit and Jegs. This is the standard Chevy to BOP adapter.
Here's some more info on fitment and dimensions:
