I'm planning to use the same suspension parts as you for my 68 Camaro. How do you like the fit and finish of the TCI stuff? Did you have to modify the trans tunnel at all to get the T-56 in there? Your way further ahead than me I'm stripping paint and cutting out rust right now. Hope to get the suspension in the new year.
Thanks
Mike

Thanks for the kind words guys. I am working on getting the tranny to fit in there correctly right now, its about 1/4 off of fitting the tranny mount up there, but thats easy. It does clear the tunnel all the way back. Sent you a PM First Gen.
