I got mine from Ross Racing in Ohio ,heres some post to look at https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums...lim-jim-17372/
https://classicoldsmobile.com/forums...2-olds-162113/ if you look up KQQLCAT they did a Ross Racing swap but to a 61 olds they said it was fairly easy . mine was done to a 62 olds very different and much harder . is not cheap but had no choice after 2 rebuilds on the slim jim could not get parts and nobody in my area know how to fix it , hope this helps

'61 and '62 full size cars use the same engine, transmission, engine/trans mounting and floor sheet metal. I don't understand what could be so different that the conversion would be so difficult - not that it's an easy conversion to begin with. If it was easy I'd have mine done by now.

The frame is different which changes the installation, on the 62 you have to make a new crossmember ,believe me I found out the hard way , research it , I think there’s a 4 inch difference in the frames ,
