Is that triangular kickup going to blend well to the floor pan?

On the LS swaps I have seen in 68-72 A-bodys look terrible because they put in this gargantuan trans tunnel not leaving much room seats/console/etc.

Its starting to come together! You going to plate up those open ends?

yeah i will seal up all the box ends.......gonna start adding the gusset plates spanning all the butt welds soon too.......the tunnel bump will encroach into the interior but only because i didnt want it to encroach into the tunnel space at all.... for obvious driveshaft clearance.......keep in mind no interior stuff is going back in carpet, trim, etc....and i will prob be making custom seat brackets to put the racing seats back in.......
