I've seen other guys do a squared hump on the center tunnel.

I'm just askin cuz I gotta do my 442's T56 install and I have to do tunnel mods as well.
BTW you live in pretty damn nice neighborhood judging by the other houses.

Ace, they asked me if liked squared or round. No specific reason really. I just thought just like you said, most people do squared so I thought I would try round to go with the whole driveline theme you know. I mean, the tranny is sort of round, as well as the driveshaft is round, so why not contour the floor the same as the driveline, huh? As far as tunneling it as far back as I did, I did that for space of the driveshaft because with the four-corner coilovers my car is lower than normal ride height so that allowed me more space for the driveshaft to travel up & down while hitting bumps and stuff when driving. Otherwise it was too cloor to the floorboard. As far as the neighborhood goes, I like it. It's kind of outside of the city limits which is more quiet and serene.
