A few posts coming up to fit all of this amazing work in.
One of the biggest sheet metal projects is now ticked off the list. Having pushed the motor and gearbox back I've had to recess the firewall 2" to give clearance behind the motor for sensors, wiring and a pair of bulkhead connectors.
Another issue with pushing the motor back is header clearance on the drivers side foot well / kick board. As I've gone to a Wilwood pedal setup I no longer need the additional clearance the factory provides on the drivers side so I have had it modified by the masters at The Panel Shop in Bibra Lake, WA to match the passenger side.
This also means the new firewall can be symmetrical instead of having a step out at the bottom to match the D/S kick board.
The factory floor was removed and replaced along with the reinforced frame mount section being extended in a similar way the P/S was built from factory.
