66 Chevy II and a Powerglide

So it appears that a Glide with a SFI shield wont fit in the tunnel on a 66 Chevy II? Anyone? Thanks.

It's a bummer , but either redo the tunnel , or swap to a certified case and bellhousing .

When I had my Chevy 2 I bought a CSI super shield. Somehow I got it put on once. The next time I pulled the trans I fought and fought that thing. I ended up throwing it in the corner where it laid untill I put my Camaro together. It fits on it but makes trans and engine swaps quite interesting.
