well... 413 .060 over .... engine #4 and got a 2nd trans for the wagon. got a good used fuel tank. ya i was amazed too. .. i missed my self imposed deadline of one year to be up and going. thats ok tho. she will be better for it.
picking up the new seats and down pipes first of the month. we working on the shop owners car for a bit (until i get it done) then its the wagons turn. o and the SC360... she turned out sweet....put a T10 in it and drove it home after 30+ years. got lucky on the mill still being good.
bad news... she sat all that time in a feild in Montana and had no rust on the body. after only a year here and sitting not driving it its starting to show where the paint is sun bleached off.... welcome to the rust belt.

well... somethings wrong. i put the mounts on the side i took them off the donor engine but it won't go. if i flip them it will move it back 4 inches. it looks like i have room and oil pan and soforth but then the mount will be basicly just hanging off the back of the pad on the K frame. the PS box has me wondering. seems real close. my brain don't work like it did before i got sick and i can't find my 65 service book. what am i missing?
it feels nice to be making headway tho. and i have to have it out of the shop for work in the morning
