I finished getting the transmission components assembly and attached. Getting the motor in by myself wasn’t easy and too some creativity. I hung weights off the transmission to get the angle on the transmission. I also removed the sway bar and beam over the radiator for more clearance. The Fumoto oil drain cleared the front, but everything has close tolerances. Even though I smashed the crap out of the tunnel down to an inch, the transmission is still touching, but I might be able to shift things around or grind down the small part that touches.
I mocked up a few things. The turbo fits, but the downpipe needs working like I imagined, which shouldn’t be too hard. The frontpipe will need working too, but I already had plans for it. The intake manifold clears the top of the stock airbox, so I should be able to fit the intercooler pipes with the stock airbox, which easily clears the motor.
