The T5 was considerably larger that the original transmission. That meant a little extra clearance was needed. The floor pan was initially cut so that there was enough clearance all the way around. I fashioned a small hump using the Pullmax and english wheel. It didn't have to be that deep of a shape so it wasn't too difficult. I planned on taking pictures as it progressed but my camera wasn't charged and before I knew it, I was done anyways...I take better pics on the next one....I promise.
The customer also wanted a short exhaust extension coming off of the dual manifold so that the exhaust shop had something to hook to. A couple of left over header tubing pieces did the trick...
Over all, I am fairly satisfied with how everything turned out. Hudsons are definitely an unique car but they also have an unique personality.
