not sure exactly, but when the swap was done, the car had to be dropped about an inch! you have to remeber that the ls ia all alu. while the evo block is steele , and you have the added weight of the xfercase.

the tunnel had to be modified a bit . basically reshaped. i'm sure the t-56 can fit now, the only issue wit the tranny fitting was the bellhousing area.

as for the awd system, there were plans to install it ( check out the other thread , it has pics of the Ausi awd system that just bolts up to the tranny and oil pan) , but these were put on the back burner after a heated debate between the owner and another "hardcore" evo guy on how the car will never hook without AWD ; the plan now is to pass him on two wheels kinda like what TNTaddict did to this guy :




oh and here's my bent frame stang against that "hardcore" guy's 600 awd hp evo on a dusty road .

if the owner comes across a stock hood he will change the existing one. we went with a solid axle setup cause of the relative ease of instalation compared to the irs; the mustang rear end fit like a glove without any narrowing . plus those rearends are alot easier to come by as well as stronger than GTO setups.

and you can't beat a solid when it comes to drag racing .
