Amc 360/sm465/np205 swap

[Baker]

Has anybody done this swap in a cj5 before? I am in the process and am trying to figure something out for a cross member/ skid plate. Obviously the cj skid plate won't work and I don't have the greatest fab skills as this is my first build. Is there anybody that makes a bolt in version ? I would have somebody on the board fab me up one but I'm down in Jacksonville Florida for awhile and it'd be hard to take the jeep somewhere to have it done and back. Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome.

Will the 205 fit between the framerails?
Maybe start with a flat plate and cut where it hits and box it back in.

Yeah it fits. I'll try and snag some pictures tomorrow when I get to the shop.
