Keisler 5-speed conversion on Early A-body: Install has begun

I will try and collect receipts and put the part numbers in a table this weekend.

Regarding the hoop: yes it had to be severely hacked, and welded into a "box" to reinforce it, however I wasn't as worried since I tied the frames together. I will attach some photos in a subsequent post.

That would be great to have a parts list. And any pics that you may have of the trans tunnel. I really think you can get a t56 in there if you really wanted to with the frame tied together and the crossmember boxed. Plus the the tranny mount ties things together as well. If I get my hands on a cheap t56 I'll put one it in the dart since quicktime makes the bellhousing for a 440 to t56. Not sure if it is the GM t56 or the viper t56 though. I would have to look at their site.

Would love to see what your floor tunnel looks like with and without the carpeting.
