But none to fit the bell housing or tranny in there. Plenty of room. In the earlier 74 - 78 Pinto/Mustang II cars,.. yes,.. those cars had very small tranny tunnels,.. a C6 will not fit with out modifcation.

TKO 500 and 600 tranny's mate and work in fox cars just like a T5 being in there. No cutting at all.

Interesting, the folks on corall I spoke with have all said tunnel needs some cutting.
