I ran SS back in the 70's with my old 57 wagon, (Still got it, turned it into a street car). I used the old '57 265 block, so it didn't have the side mounts on the block, and I had an aluminum Powerglide transmission. I made a rear crossmember, and fabricated a drivers side torque arm that bolted to the bellhousing and had a mount on the frame with a rubber cushion between them. Worked fine with a small engine/low hp.
