I am at a point that I need to decide pretty quick between the CSR shield and a blanket for mt 69 GTX build. Still in the air.

69 GTX (clone) - build in progress......

I went with the CSR shield. I had two issues. First: was no way in hell to get upper transmission bolts in (the ones on each side of oil pressure sender) Figure its a race car so I drilled two 1 inch diameter holes through the fire wall and then went to Lowes and got some plugs to seal holes.
Second: the belt protector/guide that goes on the driver side of trans oil pan just below shift cable mount was in the same place as my 2.25 inch hemi headers. Had to fab up a different design to clear headers.
Fit and finish good.
I will have my back to original cross member and new driveshaft tomorrow, so maybe it goes down the track this weekend.

Have a 69 Charger with stock floor and csr shield and it fits good. You will need to tilt the motor quit a bit and use 12 point bolts.

Watch PerformanceTV on Velocity channel Feb 10th at 9:30am if you want to see a Robinhood Blanket on the show. I need to save up for one of these someday soon.
