I drilled a hole in my floor w/ a 4" holesaw for the tower of the trans to come through, and then had to trim a little bit more to one side, despite my many measurements so I wouldn't have to cut more than once. :roll:
All in all my install is going well - but the Steeda Tri-Ax shifter stick & handle I chose to go with is rather short. That shifter handle is made for a Mustang and ends up nearly at the corner of my seat. It is not horrid in position but not ideal either. I'll make do for a while & if I dislike it another taller stick will get swapped in.
I also discovered that I must run a remote oil filter set up with the block plate/oil pan/headers I have. I got some Moroso relocating parts today & I'll keep you posted as I continue my quest for overdrive....
