Now that the Tremec is in place I needed to create a patch panel for the trans tunnel. The Tremec is a lot bigger than the T10 and has to be up higher into the car to maintain the correct driveline angle. So, I made a paper template, cut out a piece of sheetmetal and started hammering and bending to get it into the right shape. turned out pretty good.
