You can't commit from what I've observed, these cars floor pan dimensions vary quite a bit. Motor mounts, subframes, crossmembers, body mounts, factory stamping variables, accidents, off-road excursions or jumping, 400 lb. drivers, etc.

My drivetrain angle is at 2.5* and when researching my install I found numerous "similar" cars that didn't any tunnel mods and numerous that need more than mine. I'm guessing there was a pretty generous tolerance when stamping the factory floor pan.

If I had planned on not using a console I would have cut the top off the tunnel and installed a section that was wider and flatter and incorporated an e-brake (Bat-turn) handle.
