Yeah, there’s actually plenty of room.
Finally hit our first snag. American Powertrain’s shift lever adapter wasn’t quite long enough, so Stephen is making a new one out of an old anchor chain he literally found in the backyard.

Progress!
Meanwhile, fluids are being added to the car. Almost that time!
We’ll be live on facebook at 7:00 pm hopefully with a running car.

Looks easier than an f body Camaro still.
No kidding. If you didn't know about the two cylinders underneath the dash, you'd think those cars were V6s.
IT LIVES!!!
Come and see live on our Facebook page at 7 p.m. EST.
Almost there.
Done. That my friends is a shifter extension made out of a huge boat chain. All hail Stephen at LOJ Conversions.
In reply to Ed Higginbotham :
One of these things is 2.5x larger than the other. 
Update time: It's done! Done and loaded up onto a snow-covered trailer, ready to be taken home to Florida.
Wrap-up video:
I honestly thought you were joking on stream about the boat chain being used to make a shift lever. Thats awesome!
Blown away! Congratulations guys!
Congrats!
This is freaking awesome!!!
I was about to get REALLY MAD at my fellow GRMers for not upvoting a custom made part fashioned from a BOAT ANCHOR CHAIN until i saw the last post at least had some votes.
Congrats on hitting an ambitious goal with that schedule!
Really like the fact that the kit retains all the Nissan accessories. That saves so much work having to make custom lines for everything...
Watching the video, it sure seems like your tune needs a lot of work tho...
Very cool. Looking forward to the shootout.
In reply to docwyte :
Oh yeah. Definitely. We haven’t tuned the car yet, that’s just a stock GM ECU with whatever tune it’s last home required. We didn’t even tell it what displacement the engine has.
We’ll cover tuning soon. :)
You'll need to log in to post.
