[Fot] GT6 scatter shield?

[Ted Schumacher]

Brian & list. Easy to make and easy to remove. Bend a piece of 1/8" 
steel in a curve to fit over the bellhousing and down to frame rail. 
Since bellhousing is tapered to the rear, cut off ends of bent piece so 
it allows shield to follow taper of bellhousing and ends to sit flat on 
frame rail. Mark the location of bellhousing to engine bolts and drill 
oversize holes in shield so an extension and socket can reach the bolt 
heads.  Cut 2 pieces of 1" angle iron the length of the shield as it 
sits on frame rail. Drill 2 holes into each side of scatter shield and 
matching holes in angle iron.  Weld nuts to inside of angle iron.  Bolt 
shield to angle iron and place on frame. Adjust position until it seats 
nicely with adequate clearance.  Mark position on frame rails and weld 
into place. You know have an easily removable scatter shield, easy 
access to transmission mounting bolts if you want to pull engine with 
out removing gearbox and no need to try and hold a nut and bolt in 
place.  Grab your ratchet and go. Ted
