Weld up the crack and run a transmission blanket. Im only running high 12s (with no 60ft and 3.23s) But I value walking so I bought a trans blanket to keep my legs.

Nobody makes a blowproof for the LT1 so your going to have to run a blanket. If McLeod makes one they must have just recently started.

It is my understanding the one from McLeod was for an LS1 as well. I was looking a few months back when I was doing my BBC swap. Only other option from running a blanket would be to weld a steel plate, if there's room, to the body.
