I need to weld in the supports, but it's pretty much finished as it sits.

I bought some V8 roadsters frame rails and modified them with some 1/4" x 2.5" plate to make transmission mounting points. They are gussetted one one side each for a little extra support but to still allow the crossmember to be installed.

Another test fit before welding in the braces and the new firewall. There's gobs of clearance from the stock Fbody oil pan and the rack, the front to the swaybar, and there is a ton of room up from for radiators.

The transmission crossmember fully welded up with plenty of exhaust clearance and rigidity.

From the inside. Obviously the factory HVAC box can't go there anymore. The plan is to use a universal "hot rod" system and just plumb it into the stock ducting.

The passenger head is further back, so that's why this this thing looks so asymmetrical.

Pretending making a new firewall/tunnel will be made easier by mocking up a giant poster board version first. I was able to use the center piece, but both sides ended up having to be made like a patchwork quilt. Having the paper template definitely helped once the engine was back out though.

Check fitment. Perfect. The engine is tilted down about 2.5° compared to the rest of the car and is moved towards the passenger side by about 2° using the transmission output as the "pivot" it gives me plenty of steering shaft clearance.

Cut a gaping hole in the car. Including notching the usual back parts of the engine bay where normal people cut

Start by stripping the car down to a bare shell. It just makes everything else easier.

Started on tunnel. It’s going to be just like a van so I can unbolt it for easy access to everything. I just need to weld some sheet metal to the flange next
