Today me and my dad installed the transmission. Took a minute to get it lined up with a new dowel pin, had to shave it slightly. Almost too thick. Now that it's in. The trans mount is 7" back which I anticipated. The cars crossmember is really close to the pan. I won't be able to install the shift kit with this in the way. Can't drop the pan. I asked the trans guy to install a shift kit, but he said wait until it's in the car. I shoulda pressed him on this. So now I may have to cut out the existing crossmember and weld a new one farther back. The dilemma is the pedals. Could I cut the crossmember out but leave the part that supports the pedals ?
