I put the NV4500 5spd in mine.....it was originally a automatic truck. I just love a standard shift. The first gear in that thing is pretty low too. I start off in second, even when pulling a trailer sometimes....

super easy.....only problem I had was having to redo my tranny tunnel. Those trannys are real tall and since my truck is stock floored, clearence was already an issue. The actual swap went smoothly though!

But there are 97 different ways to cut the floor on a BD. Just depends on your preference. Looks like your not gonna be able to use the factory door seal trim, and on the box styles, I cut the front floor at the fire wall. DragNasty is cut right at the door seal just like you cut yours. I didnt want to use the factory door seal trim peices. Looks like you are heading in the right direction!

I should still be able to use the door seal trim i went over frome there like 1/2 inch where it starts to go vertically. As far as where I cut it at the front I thought I could make the floor go straight longer(hard to explain)before it starts to slope up and not have to move the pedals as far up.
