I have a c4 tranny and power brakes.I had to use the stock crossmember.I cut it out for my c4 and made my mounting plate.Only took 2 or 3 hours.I could not find any crossmember that would let me run a c4 tranny, power brakes, and stock pedals in stock location.I wanted my pedals in the floor.Hope this helps.
