Default More pics, more progress

Well, I finally got around to working on the vette. Wife expected me to do yard work, garden and honey doo list during the spring.

The nerve

Anyway, got the motor and trans all laid out ready to assemble. Still have to run by Summit and get some nice new bolts today.

I plan to have the motor and new super t 10 in place this weekend.

Trans is 2.88 first gear. I hope the stock rear end will match up with this ratio ok.

I have also included some A/C pics for anyone interested. I discovered that you can reach the drier hose through the vent on the side. I had intended to have the big hose connected before installation, but forgot and then discovered I could get through the vent opening.
