trying to make the cut.

cableguy0, tranny is out. i'm talking about the tranny xmember. This is what I'm looking at right now:

Sorry for the large picture -

So, you see, the rear rivets up top are under the cab/tranny hump with ~1" or less of clearance to get to them. The front top two rivets have abou 2-3" clearance, although it looks like more in the picture.

If you look closely you can see the start of the e-brake cable X on either side of the xmember.

I hate to cut this thing in half, it's in great shape, but it is impossible to get out, so it's gotta go. I need to get the LS1 in there and I am not going to have a stupid piece of metal stand in my way!
