i got 5mm plate today and messured up the brackets ,then i marked a line and put a slit in the plate and bent it to form the mount ,now i just need to weld the bend on the mount and then weld them onto the Xmember ,and then the fun will begin !!
oh and how far back will the shifter hole need to be cut in the floor
and will the CA box fit straight into a auto 1200 tunnel ? will i need to massage the back of the tunnel ?
as soon as i get the mounts welded im getting a tail shaft ,then i need to sort out the fuel and brakes :)
pics up tommorrow !

keen for pics aswell :). I was planning on using the maddat kit as they came with a swaybar for around $600, but now they don't come with the swaybar i can't see the value in it at all when i am a competent welder, not paying $540 for 2 plates welded on.
I assume its just an upside down v shaped plate welded to the crossmember on both sides.
