Tremec TKX first cuts

My preference is to have something for an upper brace. I showed one of many ways to do it. The hooker cross member part uses 1/2 "material over the top also I believe.
My hydraulic clutch kit as well as transmission came from SST. SST swapped out the throw out bearing collar before shipping the transmission.
I mocked up my transmission with bench seat. The shifter clears the seat mounted in the rear position also. I may slightly bend the lever later.

I appreciate it! Yea I’ll probably get that hooker crossmember or make something. 1/2 inch thick eh? That’s beefy. I’ll look into sst. I have a clutch kit coming from Ram. Liberty Gears is getting me the trans along with other parts. Have to piece together the pedals and m/c. Any preference on those parts? Sst pretty good? Brewers any good? Could I do a universal master from wilwood and do away with the angle of the pushrod?
