Once the engine goes in the car, i'll hook up the lower crank mandrel and pulleys and belts.
Then the new free neutral valvebody goes in to compliment the new PPP Shifter.
My Hooker custom Headers are all receramic coated and ready to install. Collector tethers are all there too.

Installed the kick panels and door sill plates today and noticed when I was on my back ,I missed some parts of the roll cage on drivers side and upper windshield cage. I have to go and start touching up with the foam brush. Now I have to wait on installing the drivers SS seat till its finished.

very nice !!!!!

 

[SUPERSTOCKRACER]

Painted the rest of the cage today. Now waiting for it to dry. SS Seat will go in with reinforced back of the seat bracket holding to the roll cage for added safety. Then charge up the battery, make sure Racepak and ARC switch panel is working properly.
Engine going on the run stand in about an hour.

I'm lighter than you now Mr. TileRacer.

 

[bobtile]

Well, your car may be lighter but you ain't!

 

[SUPERSTOCKRACER]

Well, your car may be lighter but you ain't!

But.........In my defense, I'm 5 inches taller

 

[SUPERSTOCKRACER]

Spent most of the day finishing up the little odds and ends and It's done except for the engine.
Drivers seat is in, all wiring done with added grounds, PPP shifter cable in and all the ARC switch panel switches functioning properly.
Racepak dash all installed as well.

[SUPERSTOCKRACER]

But you have one less hump than me.

Yes that's true My Man!

 

[bobtile]

You're fattness makes you look 10 inches taller than everyone else.

 

[SUPERSTOCKRACER]

You're fattness makes you look 10 inches taller than everyone else.

Thanks for the kind words.

That shifter sounds like the right shifter for a lot of us to have. Where did you get yours from?

 

[bobtile]

Thanks for the kind words.

I wish we could zoom out on that picture to show how you race in high-heels.

PPP Proflite, but you'll need the correct valve body to make it work properly. it has a neutral after 3rd gear.
I opted for the non transbrake version with only 1 neutral after 3rd instead of the neutral after park and hit the button to go in reverse.

Motor is done and put on the run stand yesterday, fired up without a hitch. Going up tomorrow to readjust the valves, pull it off the run stand and make some time to get the 65 Plymouth up there for the motor install and to install the new A & A free neutral valvebody.
Not sure if I want to run it with my existing turbo action 8" converter or try the new A1 8" converter that stalls at 6000 rpm.
