Default NV4500HD to NP205

I'm planning to swap a 12v into my 78 K20 sometime soon. I'm definitely gonna use a NV4500 trans. I'd really like to keep my NP205 transfer case. Does anyone make an adapter to mate the 29-spline NV4500HD output to the NP205 32-spline input? I don't wanna use a divorce mounted case. Seems like two more u-joints to worry about breaking. Also, I don't wanna use the Dodge transfer case because I'm affraid of durability issues with the chain-driven case. Any advice guys?

Have you checked with Advanced Adapters?

good call, I think I just keep forgetting about the 29 spline 205 since last time I actually found one I couldn't get it for less than $1,100.

Does the Dodge NP205 have the passenger side front output? I've already got a kingpin D60 front axle from a military K30, and I really don't wanna have to swap it. Thanks for the tips guys.
