Looking great man. A bolt in tunnel makes a big difference for access, makes me wish everything came with it from the factory.

Yeah forgot about the bolt in trans covers, that would be a good idea but actually we are just going to raise it up with fixed panel just give enough for the 4L80E

Re: 65Custom Build Thread

So small update not much happening in the last couple of weeks but we did find out that engine mounts have built into them about 3 degrees of angle, this makes sense but we were just not thinking about it, so we were swapping the mounts from left to right to get the engine moved back where we wanted but ended up having to swap them back and cut them to get the best placement and keeping the 3 degrees angle, this also gives us a little more trans clearance than we had, we wont have to raise the floor but maybe 1/2" to give a little more insurance.

Small update raised the floor about 1/2" to give more room for the trans.
