By the way... Yes I know it's a lot of work, and no we are not new to cars by any means. The goal is to do a first start in Mid July.

Looks like fun! lol. I think you might be the only one. How is all that fitting in? Does it some how squish in? Or is there little room?

The pictures there are the very first test-fit (of about 1000.) It's looking like I'll need a lot of lube to make it work! And a big torch! I'm trying ot keep the factory Viper accessories on it, so there will be some adjusting, but The firewall won't need to be moved. Just some mods for the tranny.
