Factory 4 sp. console w/ new 6 sp trans

I am in the process of swapping in a T56 Magnum Silver Sport kit with the goal of a factory 4 spd console look. Here I have the ToddRod cross member welded in with the console sitting on the factory console brackets. My car was originally a auto trans. I will have to cut/weld the base of the reproduction shifter handle to get it to bolt to the T56. I also plan to buy an American Powertrain White Lightning shifter with an offset to move shifter forward. So details to be figure out when I get to that point. I have a thread over on Member Restoration section.

question: does the console come even remotely close to fitting over the crossmember? i know you don't have the floor in yet, but i was just wondering if you had an idea.

i know, i know, hold your horses and all that. i'm sub'd to the build thread too
