Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
very interesting concept... are the window defrost holes not centered on the original dashes? Are you gonna fill them in too?

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
I have a question about the mount on the fire wall side of the column. Where did ya get it and can it be used on a regular stock column?

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
ok....the last trans tunnel i made was fine with my mock-up cab mounts (2x4)..i had four 2x4 wood blocks i was useing for the cab mounts at the time i made the tunnel, but when i put the real bushings in, only the rear were the same thinkness as the 2x4... the front was not as thick, thus lowering the cab and trans tunnel....so my .5" clearance between the trans and tunnel went to touching each other........oooooooopppppppsssssssssss, i even knew better so i cut it out and made another one, and this one flows better with everything else( like the dash) altho i know it'll be completely covered, least it looks good now

Re: project INCREDIBLE HULK 6.2L with 6L80E
yes, it will be jigged up....basically a solid peice of round bar, thats perfectly streight, and 2 'pucks' that slide over the bar and into the bearing hole in the axle housings ends....if this doesnt make sense dont worry it will when i post the pics of the process...
