Turbine Bronze 67 GTX HEMI 4 Speed

Starting to make progress. However ran into some challenges.

These heater core inlets don't look right after getting the heater box in. Not sure if I did something wrong or what but I imagine they are supposed to stick out evenly and further.

The aftermarket replacement heater cores have shorter tubes that barely protrude through the firewall... Yours look better than mine did... Mine both tubes had less than 1/2" protruding.... I found the tubes are exactly the same size as 1/2" household plumbing copper so I cut the tubes right even with the fiberglass heater box & spliced in 1" of pipe.... four slip couplers, a couple inches of copper pipe & fifteen minutes soldering now the nipples stick out like they should...
 
The heater core tubes look fine, but what's that hole in the firewall above the horizontal portion of the brake line?

Yeah I know. That hole should not be there. Should have gotten welded up but it didn't. I am just going to put a plug in it. I'll be honest was pretty bummed about it.

put a factory plug and most people won't know.

Agreed. It'll be barely seen, if at all, behind the Hemi.

Other than that ordered another front brake line for the fire wall as this plus the ones to the master cylinder just do not seem right. The master cylinder ones are very short from the prop valve.

Need to add the other piece on the frame for the disc / drum rear.

They make 2 different firewall lines and kits. You have the flat one but need the 'rounded' or 'curved' line kit. Mine used the straight one.

Thank you. I did order that one and hopefully will have it soon. Planning on putting the hemi and k member in at the end of the month.
