I have had a SBC in front of a 3 speed trans in my FJ40 for 30 years. I did the swap on my 74 in 1979;
The Advance Adapters kit had a spacer to put between the bellhousing and the transmission to get the proper spaving for the Toyota input shaft.
I used a 1953 Chevrolet passenger car bellhousing for the swap and it fit fine and has worked well for thirty years.
I also used the slave cylinder bracket from AA to get proper spacing.
At the time, Advance suggested using a GM Borg and Beck style three finger pressure plate as they said it allowed more movement between the clutchand pressure plate.
