Well if you are going to run that type you will need to cut the firewall. If you dont wanna do that then go with a CSR one piece one. You will still need to massage the tunnel a bot but wont have to remove any part of the firewall.

I have more than 1" that hits the stock firewall as marked on the tape and I cant move the engine enough down or forward to make it not hit the firewall.
Why do you NEED a flex plate shield?? I thought that was for the Chebby guys.
9.99 faster needs a shield unless you have an sfi bell.or something like that.

I would personally just run the CSR shield instead of that and a blanket.

Those shields aren't ment to be installed on a stock bodied car, they fit best on chassis cars or dragsters where they can be added to the car as part of the original build plan, you'll have to butcher the car to get it to fit
