Big Jake, just about everything I read above is correct. Your main issues are:
(1) The Landcruiser input shaft is too long, consequently a spacer must be built-in or go between the bellhousing and tranny to keep from cramming the input shaft into the Chevy crank!!!
(2) There is also the question of engine-to-tranny alignment. You loose that when you merely redrill a Chevy bellhousing. Alignment must be established on machined surfaces, that's why you need an adapter!!!
