Looks good, are you installing the T56 as well? I'm in the middle of my swap right now. Good luck.

Yep, went from a automatic to T-56. This is just a weekend cruise and play car so I wanted to have a manual to row through the gears with. My 98 is a automatic too so that's one of the main reasons I decided to go ahead and convert the 87 over. Good luck on your swap as well!

It's the Edelbrock TBI 3 point, I trimmed it a little over the altenator since I was having the same problem. It didn't like much to clear so with a little grinding and welding a new piece angled over the altenator it fits great. Other than that I didn't have any other clearance issues with it. BTW, looking at it from the front you can't even tell the brace was modified.
