it does look really good though 
Finally did the passenger HUMP delete!!!!
Finally did the passenger HUMP delete!!!! Well, as most of you know, the passenger floor board has the "hump" there. After numerous complaints from friends, women, and others, I decided to delete the hump once and for all. My friend did all the work. A plasma cutter, air tools, and welder made the job relatively easy. I guess the hardest part of the job was making the carpet stretch and glue down properly.
The job basically consisted of:
Plasma cutting the existing floor re-using as much of the stock metal as possible
Modifying the frame rail
Modifying the trans cross member
Adding metal where needed
Contact cementing the carpet down
All in all I am happy with the results. Was it worth it? Yes, in my eyes. When you sit in the passenger seat now (I don't do it very often) it is 3 times as comfortable. I saw how W2W did the same mod on there Camaro build up, and that's what got me thinking about it.
Enough of me talking, enjoy the pics! Comments welcome.

Oh my god a hole:
Modified frame rail:
Modified trans cross member:
Welded and seam sealed:
Left side shows where the ~2.5" drop is now:
Carpet glued down:
Gotta love the flatness!!!
The above pic shows how close the floor is to the ypipe. Even with PatG's car shown below, and the heat shield, you can see how far away the ypipe is from his floor board. Note the placement of the cross member in both cases. Mine is almost flush with the ypipe.
