Is that from the interwebs or do you have all 3 and can take more photos? If so I'd really appreciate it!

Darius had to raise his tunnel in a B body per his build thread, didn't look terrible. I'd like to see more photos and measurements to gauge the fit.

The crossmember is further back on an e-body vs b-body... that makes a world of difference in a 518 swap also. I imagine it's the same deal for these transmissions.

going back through cbodydrydock.com threads I found this pic showing tunnel mods when running the 545RFE. Now I want the dimensions of the 545RFE as well to compare :P

I was changing the oil in my 2012 charger this weekend with the 3.6 and TF8. I couldn't get any good measurements of the TF8 in the car but it's near 30" bellhousing to mount and at the mount still seemed to be 9" tall (9" diameter). It's a big dude. The tunnel in the car looks huge from the underside.

hmmm, I know they made them for a long time, but is there actually a hydro/vac controlled 5spd version that handles any real torque? That would be really intriguing if you can bolt on a hemi bell...

wikipedia only says this
722.5 — 5-speed (hydraulically controlled 4-speed with additional electrically controlled 5th overdrive gear)
no actual page for it, but a page for the 4spd before and the 722.6, of course :P
google isn't being my friend, can't find much about the trans, it's construction, or torque rating

this one does not have a bolt on bell and is much skinnier than a .6

this might be worth $10 tho lol

I asked Russell Drake about them and he said the 722.5 is weak, only went behind v6.
