That turned out nice.

Will your bench seat go all the way forward? Which way does the reverse handle go, forward or back?

I hope to do that to my Chevelle sometime in the near future.

No, it will not. The reverse handle goes forward when engaging reverse. It is my plan to &quot;reverse&quot; the reverse handle and also take the seat to the upholstry shop and have the bottom sectioned up to make clearance and then have that portion reupholstered.
As it stands right now, I have seat extenders in the car for everything to sit as it does. The Mrs. cannot drive the car like this and I know that will not go far.

After selling her Berger Camaro, she made it very clear to me she likes to drive something fast and loud.

It's go time!

Here are a couple of pics of the trans tunnel to facilitate the Ram Rod.





The slave assembly after checking its height and proper shimming



M22W just for me!



I ended up utilizing the Mcleod RST twin disc clutch again. It did have good street manners as well as some stout holding power





Carpet and seat installed! I will try to rework the carpet around the shift boot but may very well end up replacing the front carpets.





The driveshaft is ordered and hopefully will be here at weeks end!

Tim
