'69 Barracuda T56 swap, floor, cross member

I had to fold the entire pinch weld flat, and then even raise that section with some relief cuts to make adequate clearance to get at the bell housing bolts. Even still I cut a hole that I fill with a floor plug to access one of the bolts.

At best the pinchweld would have to be flattened out. IIRC I tried that and I didn't like it so I just flat out cut it off by cutting ahead of it.

I wonder how much the Holley G3 conversion mounts I am using will affect this since the motor is 1.75" forward of the LA motor location.
