I can only say wow that is going to be awesome i am glad it fits is it much heavier then the standard lump will you have to beef up the springs. to take the weight?
Thanks,

i have taken it out and cut some steel off the front cross member.
it now sits lower at the front and a bit further forward.
the bell housing will fit, i might just have to dress the tunnel back with a small hammer a little bit.
