I am starting to collect parts for my LS2/4l70e install and need a transmission cross member. I will be using the Mast oil pan, Stainless Works headers and S&P adapter plates. Looking for recommendations......thanks in advance.

I was able to use the Bowler piece for my LS2 / 4L65E (removable bell-housing) and get it at a discount by mentioning I saw them at a Good Guys show and am a member of this site. I also have the S&P plates. I got about 2 deg down on the driveline angle with that setup and had plenty of room behind the heads in the engine bay. It is a nice piece.
Bowler designed this cross member for the Ride Tech Velocity car that was using an LSX and one of their 4L6XE transmissions.
Only issue was I had to install the energy suspension trans mount facing the wrong direction since the "buldge" was up against trans cross member. Not really an issue if you ask me but it has to do with preload of the trans mount. Hard to explain but you will see what I mean if you go this route. Also could not use one of those $5 Autozone transmounts becuase the metal lip came down and hit the cross member.
