2 I think this Tunnel reshape is coming along as good as I could expect. I hope it resembles the factory floor once it is finished.

we haven't got that far yet, we're prepped for paint pending some final engine compartment mods. Carpet and interior is all being custom made,

Hi SB, Do you have a set of photos to show off your work? Any idea if the challenger srt8 bell housing will work in the cuda body? edit: oops, I meant to ask about photos showing the bell housing installed around the stiffening member near the firewall (you guys realize how many times I've re-written that statement? lol) Quote:
I used the Quicktime 8074 Bell housing $535.00 to bolt the 5.7 hemi to the t56 6 speed on the Cuda. An offset shifter puts the shifter in the correct location, I did cut the torshen crossmember I used 1/4" steel to fab it back. also the tranny crossmember is really beefed up to help carry the load.
