Curious what you ended up doing for headers and connection to exhaust for your swap. I also used Holley motor mounts and using 8HP70 trans.
Any advice would be appreciated.
I was able to get another sample of paint to try. It's an improvement, but still a touch darker than I like.
In picture below, the sample labels are as follows going left to right.
Sample 1 - First color sample of base coat sprayed on black sealer.
Sample 2 - Second color sample of base coat...

We put the engine back in and everything seems to marry up to engine connections. Only issue is oil pressure and MAT sensors don’t match plug connectors on harness. Had to order a different sensor for oil pressure as...
Bit more progress as of late. Boss gave me the green light to buy the new HVAC system so I could mock that up and see where I have clearances on firewall to route engine harness.
With that in place now we know where we can mount ECU between dash, HVAC and firewall.
