Well, I set the block and transmission in on Sunday. It fits allright but there is a small cover on the passenger side transmission that is touching the tunnel. So, I'll pull it at least partly back out and massage that area some. Maybe it's just my Flowtech headers but I wish they were not practically touching the brake lines. Is that the way it is your cars?
