Looks like you're making good progress! Did you need to do anything to the trans tunnel to make it fit?
I had Smoke Johnson Customs in Huntsville, AL do the metal work. There was not as much modification needed as you would think. They fabbed a custom trans crossmember for it.
There was not as much modification needed as you would think.
I've been suspicious that it is possible with just a crossmember and maybe a little persuasion from the chief engineer. Do you have any pictures of the inside of the car or of the crossmember? My ideal outcome is an LT motor with a 10L trans, I've posted several threads on the forum discussing this topic. Just haven't had time or funds to get the project off the ground.
What motor mounts are you using? Please post more pictures of the tunnel mods. The only other gen-5 that I've heard of on these is from LSXMAT. You guys are pioneering the future of swaps on these! Keep it up.
