1978 New engine installed
Phew..what a winter. I started with a pretty much stocker 350 with a TH350 that Dynoed at 164HP at the local dyno. In Dec I yanked it and the trans, converted the car to an LS T56 and added a little 500 HP Solid lift roller motor. It has been fun. Got it running right yesterday and finally felt like it looked good enough for a photo to show off. While I was tuning the carb, the power steering pump locked up tight. Later found that the return line from the newly installed Hydroboost was kinked 
looks like I need to rerun my return line!
