T-18 to 401 help needed

I'm in a tough spot and i need some help. I recently gathered up all the parts and pieces needed (so i thought) to swap a ford T-18 into my Scrambler, but went i went to bolt the bellhousing to the engine i found that i don't have enough clearance inside the bell to accomodate the clutch and throwout bearing stack. I am using an Advanced Adapters bellhousing part# 712569 which mates perfectly to the block but only allows 6-1/8" of clearance inside of the Bell. does anybody know if the T-176 bell offers anymore clearance?
here's my total stack:
Flywheel - 1-1/2"
clutch Disk - 3/8"
pressure Plate - 2-3/4"
throwout bearing - 1-9/16"
anybody have any advice? or ran into a similar issue.
My second question is:
Will i need to cut the floor pan to accomodate the the Transfer Case shifter when using a Dana 20 ? it sure does look like it when test fitted.
