T-56 tranny cross member in '73 240Z

Here are a couple of shots of a T-56 cross member I made for my '73 240Z LT-1/T-56 swap. I used 2" X 1/4" bar stock. I heated the bar stock with an oxy-acetylene torch to make the bends. I welded a couple of nuts to some 18 guage metal and ran the mounting bolts up through the floor. These will ultimately be tack welded to the floor after I finish up patching the holes in the floor...

i have seen so many sbc guys run it that way. im so curious if anyone has broken or rip their floor pans from just mounting it flat like that. i mounted mine flat like yours also when i had my old t56. im doing something different now and was thinking about welding in a 1/8 plate onto the floors then drill through for extra security.
