Tko tunnel mod?

Just getting geared up to do a tko swap and was wondering if the trans tunnel has to be modified and if so how is this done?

The was a pic in the other thread you responded to. Looked to me like the top of the tunnel was cut out, then a new piece fabbed up and welded over what was cut out.

Go here and look at post #19.

You dont need to be as invasive as the picture referenced in that thread. I raised the rear of the tunnel right after the lower boot area about 1" and was able to use the stock console. I don't have pics though, they are long gone.
