I recently did the TRZ rack on kidgloks car
was able to squeek the input shaft behind the alternator (champion alternator only bracket from youz guys)
with the TA headers adding an inch to the stock column would have made header clearance a little better but it worked
had to make my own brackets for the frame as that stamped piece and standoff wouldnt fit
between the rack and also doing the rjc crank pulley he shaved 50lbs

http://turbobuick.com/forums/threads...ersion.386715/

and the kit for manual with that bracket i did on murphster ,
he has stock rotors calipers and drums and stops from 134 (3700lb) just fine

both take a little getting used to ...like driving an old farm truck

It's not the Pumpkin...It belongs to someone from N.Y state...By the way, the clue here is that "real" Pumpkin has an orange painted firewall...
See the picture below (the "real" Pumpkin)...
