Engine adapter

I have a 1976 IH International Bus with the floor shift manual transmission behind the 345 cu.in. Binder engine. I wish to remove the 345 and replace it with a Chevy V-8 engine. Does anyone know of a manufacturer who builds an adapter for this type application. Any help is certainly appreciated. Thanks Guys.

Re: Engine adapter

You would have to just use the Chevy transmission too. The real question would be why. The 345 was made to haul heavy loads, a light duty Chevy V8 likely wouldnt last too long(I'm guessing 100k miles at best).
