Lowering engine?

Hey guys, I have a s/c swb 2wd 77. It had a cooked 302 and aod hacked in it. I dropped a 400 and a c 6 in it. The questions, what different tranny cross members are there I need to lower the engine and tranny because there is a pretty good angle on the drive shaft. The engines from a. 81 is ther different engine mounts that will drop the block some more. From the pan to cross member I have a least 4in I think that's it for now thanks
