Checking the fitment of the AMD shaker hood ,looks good only minor tweaks

Finished the transmission tunnel modifications. The tunnel needed to be raised 3 inches and 4 in width to fit the T56 Magnum. I made a plate to mount the Hurst pistol grip shifter. Looks killer.

I added the front cowl to cross bar and mounts . I had to modify the dash frame for them to come through. While I was at it I elinimated the ash tray area in the dash(looks cleaner without it. Next will be laying out my side bars and cross brace. These will have be removable .

Finishing up my Roll cage today, I wanted to make the rear crossbar and side bars removable. After looking at some weld in cage bungs ,I decided to make my own. I was careful not to have the cage interfere with the door panels or front seats. The front bars are angled so they are not intrusive to get in and out of the car. I tacked welded everything for now but will fully weld when it goes on the rotisserie for paint.

Does your shifter hit the dash?

My motor and trans is raised 1.5 inches and when I tried the stock type pistol grip, it hit the dash in 4th gear.... And the shifter was way high.... So I changed to one of the new billet ones for the new camaro

Nice! I like the low door bars, I did the ones like that on my Dart but I bent them down into the torsion bar cross member and welded them in.
