I understand that the Corvette torque tube is made of a ceramic aluminum and requires very special welding. Also, I am not aware of anyone making a scattershield for that setup presently. It could cause serious injury as close to your back as it is in a 90" wheelbase, if the clutch lets go. You might consider some sheet steel across that rear bulkhead if you plan to do anytype of racing, as I believe both the NHRA and SCCA would find fault with it at inspection.
