Im running a 700r4, as for the floor I'm still brainstorming ideas. Either I leave the floor alone and maybe do a minor tunnel or drop the body mounts about .5-1inch and then do a slightly bigger tunnel. I dont know, thier are different ways to approach this but first I have to set a plan and focus on what I really want then modify what is needed.

Possible approach #1:
-shave the 1 1/2'' of firewall lip and have an entire flush piece
-then relocate my hydrobooster under my frame if possible with (scott hotrods) brake assembly (this will clean up the firewall).
-body drop the cab an .5-1inch
-cut part of floor above booster so it can have clearence
-build tunnel
-and so on....

I will keep you posted on the direction that I proceed.
