A bell housing made by MACS Speed shop here in New Zealand is available in the States
This comes with a shaft to mount the clutch forks and the pedals in the normal location
However it needs a later V8 thrust bearing carrier and a special clutch as the splines start further back
I believe that a four cylinder turbo Mustang clutch is the perfect fit.
This also leads to an open prop shaft with the attendant issues, but I have seen the original ball joint and radius arms modified to fit.
The bell housing has mounts for the front radius arms ball joint
