Thanks! About to test fit the driver side today. It's going to be a pain in the *** to get it in there.

Needs more pics! Great build and plan. I would love to see a dyno of a 60 blowing up at ~700 wheel.

haha, yeah me too... oh wait that would suck *****.

so speaking of my 60 dilemma......

I would be willing to trade some of my fabbed parts for a working 80, a decent converter or maybe a driveshaft. If you have a fully built one, I could throw in some other parts to even up the deal. just going to throw that out there......

Little update. Driver side manifold fabrication is done. I was pretty nervous about actually getting the thing in there without too much trouble. Turns out just unbolting and moving the steering shaft was all that it needed to slip in.

I've also got a few photos of my portable 110v wench. I've got a small garage and my truck doesn't fit so i have to take it in and out ever time i work on it. If anyone else is in the same spot, BUY ONE OF THESE!! works so well.

Enjoy!
