Yeah, but who's driving it? Webster Papadopoulos?!  shocked

There has to be next to no room from the trans tunnel for your feet. It's bad enough with a stock tunnel.

It speena while...Is that a BBC or SBC in there? Valve covers look like a BBC, but I could be mistaken.

Looks like a set of 327 flags on the side. If the engine is set in low enough the tunnel isn't a problem. I saw a V8 bug a couple of years ago that ran a 427 and foot space wasn't a problem at all.
