Also, assuming your bus had a split case tranny originally you might give the 
guys at Wolfsburg West a call and see if they have any suggestions for a 
conversion tranny mount other than the solid metal one.
 
Again, if your bus had the tunnel case tranny originally then it is not a 
problem.  It is simply a bolt in conversion using normal stock parts.  If you 
are not sure which it had (it changed about 1/2 way through the production of 
the 59 model year with the intro of the bastard engine) then we can look up the 
VIN for when the change occured and tell which it had originally.  What does it 
have in it now?
