Re: 49 ls1

Once I had the mounts made, I strengthened them with some 1/4 wall tube, and started banging out a new firewall. I want this one to be smooth, so I cut the factory one completely out, saved and re-used the 6 cyl recession (and moved it down about 1.5"), and cut 18ga. sheet to fit. It's just sheetmetal screwed for now, but I'll be welding it in, and re-bracing the backside tomorrow.

Hopefully this weekend I can get the cab off, and build the trans mount.
