Speedtech sells that T56 tunnel which can be installed with screws etc if you don’t want to be welding on your car.

Installed this on my '68 that has a SBC and T56, I did the cutout with the finished interior, so welding wasn't an option and used 3M panel epoxy. Pain in the ass...yes, wish I had a garage that wasn't built to barely fit a 1920's car.

I see first gen tunnels. Not second.

I went with the 4l60 because they said a 6l80 would definitely require mods. I would’ve much rather had the 6l80.

Sorry. I’m stuck in first gen mode. It can likely be adapted to fit a second gen.

The reason I went with the 4l60 is because Speedtech said with that trans, I would not need to modify the tunnel like I would with the 6l80 that I preferred.

I was willing to go with that trans to avoid any tunnel work.

A CV driveshaft isn't recommended by two different shops I asked to hopefully avoid the angle issue. Both said the weight would cause transmission damage due to this.
