Hello TT,

Sorry TT but i've just seen this one, sometimes when i click on new threads i dont always get all the latest ones.

Anyhow, the front of the grp scuttle sits about 2" forward of TR9, between TR8, so whether you are fitting the grp bulkhead or the ali one you need to panel the top of the tranny tunnel about 3" forward of TR9 to meet the bulkhead.

Hope this helps.....AndyH

Sorry, need to be more on the ball.....

No problem making an infill TT you dont see that part for the scuttle anyway, you'll probably need to cut holes through it anyway for you loom to pass through.

Good Luck...AndyH
