Without my cover plate I would have been forced to remove the tranny. It was a LOT easier to remove the console.

I stretched the tunnel as much as I could with jacks and blocks but still could get enough vertical clearance. So I "custom" hammered a plate from a piece of 16 ga.


Not perfect by any means but it blends nicely with the factory stamped floor.
Nice job there Seig. I like the removable plate idea, I may use that?
