    You could always just go the redneck route and bang out the tunnel. If for some reason you run into a serious problem, you could always make a custom tunnel. The only problem I see with a new tunnel is getting the console to fit over it if it's significantly different.

    What a cool build thread. It's been awhile since we've had such a refreshing build thread like this on the forum. Keep up the good work

    Was your trans output shaft angle lowered relative to stock as a result of the manual swap? Do you think this worsened the Marauder driveshaft vibration issue?

    On my '97, which ran a GM 4L80E, I simply recorded all angles with a magnetic angle meter, and set them the same going back together with the chevy stuf. I had no issues to 160 mph in that car, using the stock Vic driveshaft, which I had shortened and high speed balanced.

    Calling it quits for the day! Pic dump time!









    That will be all till Wednesday evening or so when I get back on it, and the trans/accessory bracket/ect will be here.

    Going good!

    I'll answer this for the sake of helping someone that might be building their own cross member or feel the stock one modified is "close enough" and apologize for the hi jack.

    I had massage the tunnel slightly (after I recessed in for the under mount shifter). Even with this I ended up around 1/4 of 1% lower. Of course that is for just us that feel accuracy matters. My tailshaft is the same 4 1/4" bolt pattern as the 8.8 and I tried a steel telescoping shaft that failed at 80 and up. The Driveshaft Shop set me up with a lengthened GT500 upgrade constant velocity shaft that is capable of 1,000+ RWHP @ 8* max pinion angle LOL

    You can say we've tested it with three adults at the top of 3rd with 26#s of boost with the only vibration being tire slippage. Frank at The Driveshaft Shop is a true class act.

    Sorry for the hijack! Just didn't want to read about other members issues.

    Actually your input is greatly appreciated! I will be needing a telescoping shaft on my setup as well. The output shaft on the A6 is a fixed yoke design. I need an experienced mind to help on that. The mustang uses a carrier with a telescopic rear section. Do or can a shaft be made that has a telescopic joint in it, but no carrier?

    Awesome, simply awesome.
    I hope, without removal, you an reproduce the modified motor mount, oil pan, and guide to clearance cut areas and amounts.
    Like templates and custom built 5.0 swap parts.
    Someone here will want to make and sell this stuff.
    I'm so happy you are documenting this and working so professionally.
    And so many have so much helpful tips to add!
    This is hands down THE best thread since I joined the site.
    5 thumbs up!!

    ^ That wouldn't be a problem. The mount offset I used was 3/4". And the Moroso pan # should be in there as well. The factory trans crossmember has slotted holes for the trans mount, up to 1 inch back you can go. However, you have to cut the front of the trans crossmember area (easy as its flat steel) because it hits the trans pan.

    So far, this is all it has taken to seat the 5.0L. We will know more when the accessory mount kit shows on how well this location pans out. For those staying 4r70w, this is how I would go about it. Let's hope the 6 speed auto fits the tunnel, if so, get ready boys as this pig is going to get serious real quick.

    that is the cake frosting, man! From what I'm seeing here, you'll get it. And the few serious guys digging in with you,

    Someday, this WILL be a viable swap kit, just supply a pullout 5.0/6spd auto/PCM

    If that's the case I strongly recommend not going telescoping. I tore my first one clean in half at 90 at the track. Like a fool I had another one built. Warped it, had another shop re balance, warped it again out of state, re balanced again..

    My C.V. Style aluminum one from DSS lets the CV joint collapse, then it pulls outward when torqued. This eliminates the telescoping woes of harmonics, a normal complaint of any newer high powered Mustang.

    A 4R100 will fit the tunnel and that's been proven.
    How do they compare in size?

    It has to be close if not smaller to a 4r100, those are pretty massive.
