first making some space :
plenty of space at the front. :
enough for an intercooler for the future , much easier to incorporate now then make room at a later stage
general overview (don't mind the mess toomuch , it will clean up
)

the transmissiontunnel will be HUGE
not really a pretty picture yet, i'll use this as a template, so i can make the final tunnel outside the car and use a little thicker sheetmetal then. not much space for the throttlepedal left.
i might have to place the steering position 10cm further backwards inc. the pedals, steeringcolum , seat, etc..

I think the shifter will have to be relocated. Or get a AC Cobra style |

Looks like someone is glad the winter is so nice and warm Any guess if you'll get it done (at least preliminarily) for the May season opener? Can't wait to see you run it around the AutoX course and the 1/4 ... 
Btw, what kind of rear-end are you putting in? |

i don't think it will be ready for the first meeting at bitburg. (i have a compressor ascona to build too you know for that purpose )
engine block is beeing bored and honed now, so i hope i can start the buildup in the next couple of weeks the ls1 manta car need a lot of work on the body too, so that will slow it down a lot allso (new doors, new sills , new wheelarches , new rear panel, etc..) and i think it will more of a highspeed comfortable cruiser and dragger and not so much an autoX |
