Default 2nd Gen Questions

Hello, I have a question for you guys that have done the 2nd gen swap. I talked to Brewers Hot Rods, they have a kit to get the engine in. With this kit, I can use the front accessories, but to get a T56 in, I have to cut the tunnel open and reweld. I really don't want to do that. The other option is an S&P kit. It sounds like I will need to redo the front accessories or the crossemember, but do I have to cut the tunnel. If you guys have done this swap, could you give me your experiences.


John
