BUILD THREAD Maliblu

How much work was it to get that trans to fit? I’m sure it’s real tight and probably needed some tunnel relief. I’m liking the 6 speeds.
Your set up looks nice.

It did fit without total modifications. However I could not get the driveline angle where I wanted it / should be. So I did make some tunnel modifications. I've seen other people install them without the modifications so I don't know if they're just going with an incorrect driveline angle or if they mounted their engine a little differently? It's really only tight at the top and back of the transmission. Everywhere else it fits really nice.
 
Well I did manage to drive it around the block right before the holidays. Going to need some tuning now. Also found the Grand Prix dashboard I wanted. Found it here from a fellow g-body guy. I changed the color, installed all Autometer gauges, a new stereo(mounting kit coming), new speakers,etc.

Love the project, and you've already made some awesome upgrades. Looking forward to more.
