    I am in the process of the same swap but using a 4L60E transmission.
    We are even using the same silver coupe, mines a 2003.
    I have order TDR mounts from WWW.V8SCHASSIS.CO, been waiting for then since May 28.
    Has anyone else here used TDR mounts? how did they work out? were they slow to ship?
    Good luck with your project Matt, I will be watching.

    just watched your videos, and saw you are from Hamilton Ontario, I am in Hamilton Ohio.....Crazy eh?
