Thanks Glenn.

Then i have been spent 2 very long days, working on the COSVETTE.

I am about to change the front crossmember, when i realized that the crossmember
was in serious conflict with the oil sump.

So i pull the engine and tranny out. pulled out the suspension. Took out the complete electrical system, and dash.

Then i cut out the transmission tunnel AGAIN. And measured, draw lines, and then cut out the center piece of the firewall.

Made new plate to the center piece, and tacked it in. Measured again and i have moved the center piece 70 mill backwards. So if i take the flange on the firewall
away,i will get 20 mill. So totally i will get 90 mill. I think that will be perfect.

And it will give me clearance between the oil sump and crossmember.
It will also give me much better weight distribution.
