If you've already seen the 500 how-to then you know exactly what needs to be done tunnel wise. The mods are exactly the same between the 500 and 518.
If you're going to be under the car with a welder already it's a great time to add sub-frame connectors.
I'm sorry to wake up an old thread. I am interested in seeing how this project came out, particularly the floor and cross-member mods. I am currently planning the 518 swap in my Fifth and want to sort out those details before I jump in. Duke, where is the 500 how-to that you mention above. I searched and couldn't find it.
Thanks!
