Default lq4 3rd Gen camaro

Got my motor and trans in yesterday. I was hoping to use the stock 6.0 truck manifolds. Has anybody made these work? Looks like I would have to notch the frame on the passenger side and the firewall on the driverside.

Use the fbody manifolds or either the hawk's ones...they are the only proven ones to work on our cars. congrats with the car though. check out thirdgen.org for more info.
