O Don't think I knew what I was doing... I just took the sawsall to it and said "hope this turns out like I have it pictured in my head" and so far, I got lucky, and its coming along well.. I won't get to finish it tell I put my motor back together.. I'm not lookin forward to gettin the hood to fit though..

I think you know a little more about dovetailing than I do. I wouldn't even know where to start lol.

what if you cut it straight down the center and put a tack in the rear. Then slide it together in the front until its the right angle to line up. Trim the excess and weld it up.

Yeah my C6 has a second gear issue. Probably just need to adjust the band but it holds up. My old one slipped in 3rd when I got it, but it held up until I put a new one in with the new 460.
