    i call bullshit on the auto tunnel being bigger. i dont think they would of gone to the troble of moulding 2 different floor pans.

    the issue is the height of the gearbox. it is possable to get the 6sp and beams in the tunnel probley without or minimal bashing.

    but sump will hang 2inch further down. you can get as low as andys setup with a wet sump just have to run the car super high. andys tunnel is untouched with w58 and clears by miles i think.
