Todd,
Yes, I've done it. I used trans mounts cut from a late TR6 frame,
carefully welded into the early frame. A little trimming is then
required on the early left trans mount to allow the J-type O/D solenoid
to clear. If you have a late frame in good shape, use it all if
possible. It's a stronger piece.

Not a 'bolt-in' job, but do-able.  Hope this helps!

Jim
