Getting back to the car now that summer activities are winding down. Engine and trans fitment is complete. Last item I wanted to confirm was if fresh air intake would fit without cutting a hole in inner fender. I had to modify K&N kit I bought, but it cleared without removing sheet metal. We...

Yes, I'm receiving your PM's. I'll answer you there.

Made a little progress. Got the grommet put in and harness pulled through. 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. Since I want to hide the...

Chairman, I recently met someone who has developed and produces the higher end headliner trim in chrome finish. I'm not exactly sure if his trim profile matches mine though. His trim comes at a premium price, but if you have a higher end restoration and you're willing to spend the extra money...

I was messing around with gas pedal mount again to see if I could improve position so I cut another piece and trialed some new bend positions. I think I like this one better. I had the wife come out and sit in the seat. She gave me the thumbs up so now I just need to box it in and weld the stubs...

It’s been slow pr as of late, but I’m trying to get back on the project. We ended up making a custom 90 degree vent tube fitting for the top of the trans to solve the clearance issue. I also believe the trans cable isn’t used so removing that along with bracket resolves that issue. we moved...

Good stuff here in this thread. I'm working on trying to figure out the engine and trans harness routing into the pass compartment on the wife's roadrunner. I really don't want to mount it inside the engine bay so it has a cleaner look, IMO. I'd prefer to have all the holes and mounting...

Thanks for the feedback. I'll definitely check into these.

Just read through this thread. It’s a few years old and wanted to refresh it, hopefully for updated advice and input. A close friend just had his car stolen that he’s had since high school. It was locked up in his detached garage and they broke in during the day while he was at work and stole...

Thanks guys, I appreciate the help and guidance.

Triplegreen, have you done a swap with the 8HP70 trans? If yes, what shifter did you use? I'm currently mocking up my car for a swap and I'm trying to acquire everything I need or at least make accommodations for them prior to starting any final body work.

Man has the summer flown by. With getting the floor in the new building, two different golf leagues and totally replacing the deck on the back of the house the warm days are pretty much gone. Here’s some pics of the finished floor in the new building. Already starting to fill the space with the...

Yes, I have trim available. I'll send you both PM's to confirm your needs.

Wire mesh is down and tubing is nearly all in place. Concrete scheduled for the 29th. I can't wait for this to be done....

I put the car on the back burner for a while. In addition to playing a lot of golf this summer, I’m also working to get the floor poured in my other building. I built the 60x80 building almost two years ago and the boss finally gave me the green light to put the floor in. Since I’m putting...

Haven’t worked on the car for a while. Joined two golf leagues so that will take up some free time this summer. I did pull off passenger fender as I saw some rust bubbling through the e coat. Come to find out there was a previous repair that wasn’t as clean as it should have been. Had to remove...

Got it, I'll be following your thread. Thanks.

Have you started a thread on your 6.4 swap? I'd like to see how you're coming along as I'm doing the same.
