I used a chaulking gun tube of Loctite Power Grab from Home Depot. Put a bunch on the carpet of the speaker box then pressed against the under side of the rear deck. I cut a couple pieces of scrap wood to support the speakers overnight, then removed the wood the next day and it has held up just fine.

While I don't think the originator of this thread meant for it to be a photo gallery, it seems to have turned into one.....
Either way there are some great looking transformations under hood going on here. So I guess I'll join in too...My before shot is a LS6 motor that was taken from a '71 Chevelle which was installed when I purchaesed my'70 vert 5 years ago now. The After photo is with the new motor which is a 555 cu in Dart block with Brodix aluminum heads, and of course a few other tricks up her sleeve.

Scoggin Dickey 454 HO short block, forged pistons, rods, crank
ZZ502 cam installed by them, degreed straight up
ZZ502 heads, port matched to edelbrock RPM air Gap, 1.25 intakes
Crane magnum roller rockers
Quickfuel 750 with mechanical secondaries
hooker super comps (which were a BIAAATCH to fit )
3" exhaust with 3" flowmasters
Should be an easy 550HP/550TQ at the crank
Will probably toss a 150 or 200 shot of squeeze on top, am also considering a Weiand 174 miniblower after the shake down runs are done instead of N2O, but am ready to be driving it too, so don't know if I'll tear into the top end for that or not
