Yuuupp :yes: That's what I was thinking but I was thinking in the trunk drop, will see when I'm further along.

i thought about that area too. i have a rear firewall and most of the openings are blocked off so it might not work for me. you will need to build a shield for it if you put it back there though so water and grime from the tires doesn't get into it.

Got the drivers door latch done yesterday night.

After a lot of measuring and test fitting floor mount pedals it just wasn't worth the time and effort to get the pedals to fit right AND be comfortable in the seat. I said screw it and decided to modify the stock 4th gen camaro pedals. as it turns out it was easier to do than i thought it would be. Still have to mount the clutch master cylinder and gas pedal.

brake and clutch pedal mocked up

then got the new engine cross member built. I'm very happy with the way this one came out. notice the notch for the oil drain plug. also the bolts are recessed on the bottom so they don't hit.

Just read your intire build. Awesome job!! :thumbsup:

It looks great, nice work! I like what you did for the front crossmember.

thanks guys. waynie, I'm a lot happier with this cross member than I was with the other one. the round tube just didn't look right with all the square tube in the speedtech sub frame.

got the interior epoxy sealed.

The bottom will be sealed tomorrow night and then depending on weather there might be some body work started on the bottom or it might have to wait until wednesday night.

Looks real nice AJ, won't be long now! :thumbsup:
