Yes---but now, since both motor and trans are going to come out--and the new LS3 is going to go in, I have a chance to maybe make a change now--cause after it goes back in, I'm not going to swap out after that. The Gear Vendor and the Turbo 400 will go up for sale as a unit here in the next couple of weeks---if no takers, then back into the car it goes with the LS setup.

:wow:

So Mike, of course mine has the half inch high body mounts in it---part of why it sits as low as it does. I seem to remember Todd having some drama on Payback regarding this very issue--have you had experience in this area also?

Nice---the whole tunnel or only half---

Me and my goal of one mod at a time---lol

I'm going to send the whole thing to you---you can finally make money working on a 69 Camaro---:lol:

Just put a pumped LS6 injected motor in a '69 Camaro- customer decided not to run his brand new T56 Magnum because he has too much custom work done & doesn't want to re-hash. If he has it, and accessories, you might get a hell of a deal.....plus he is in So-Cal.
Let me know if you're interested, I'll try to hook you up!

Only from looking at the tight fit of a T56 in my '68 with full height body bushings.

Well we all have to pay at or near market price, but you will find one at the Lake Forest swap meet soon for probably about $350. :D
