Trans crossmember won't line up. I have a L92 engine and a 4L60E trans installed in a 96 chevy camaro which was originally a V6. I was told that I needed a trans crossmember from a 93-97 LT car to fix this problem. After removing the V6 crossmember and installing the V8, I have the same issue. The bolt holes are about 3/4-1" off towards the rear if the car. It's as if the trans is to long for the setup. I was thinking that if I loosened the engine mounts, I could get enough slack to make it work, but 1" is alot. Any suggestions?

think it'll work? ok, i fabbed up something and installed it. haven't really had a chance to drive it yet, but i did notice that i lost quite a bit of the vibrations inside the car that were there before. i welded a piece of 1/4" angle to the crossmember. here are some photos.....
