I just got off the phone with Paul Unterstein at American Powertrain and ordered a new transmission crossmember for my Skylark.
The cool part is that as most know the late-70's X-bodies aren't well established in catalogs and no one knows what will or won't fit. So I gave Paul some measurements and what I thought might work and I think we got a winner for fit so I ordered it
One TKO-600 transmission crossmember is on it's way! Not sure if it'll get here in time for me to install it before Drag Week, but it's expected to arrive on Thursday (dang Labor Day...), and if it does I could probably install it Thursday night. This aluminum one will be a nice weight break from the all solid 1/4" steel one that is in the car now that looks uglier than sin.
