Starter location will prevent the transmission from bolting up. The block casting is where the problem will be. they made a hollowed out spot in the cast block and the v8is down lower like along the oilpan if you try to put the v8 trans to the 6 look at that first. And to put the v8 in the 6 frame takes some doing also. I put a 273new style engine in a Valiant once where a slant 6 had been. needed to raise the mounts to clear the frame with the oilpan and then had to make the mounts as regular mounts were to short. I used angle iron welded into a box then drilled the holes for the mounts to bolt up to the steel plate on the engine the mount would have bolted to. I put a piece of old tire tread between them for the vibration and cushion. Also had to make a new exhaust on it since it needed either dual exhaust or a cross over for it. I made the dual exhaust from straight pipe by cutting it then welded after the pipe was turned to fit the angle needed. This was on a 3spd stick. Seems to me I had to make a change to the clutch linkage too. This was all back 40 plus years ago now so might have forgot some of the details too.
