Looking good! Looking at all those pics, I could just smell the fumes - until I realized my pc was smoking trying to download 'em all! :D :D :D

Cereally, good progress report. Shouldn't be long now, eh?

I noticed on the rear axle that you have lines coming from the axle housings. My 9" has a similar fitting - two vent lines. I was simply going to put a breather on mine but now that I see yours, what exactly do those lines lead to?

Also, I noticed you hadn't attched the headers yet :D I KNOW those (and chainging plugs) are gonna be a PITA! That engine bay looks WAY too familiar! Are those 1-5/8" tubes?

Another thing, is your engine internally balanced (or am I looking at the wrong side of the fllexplate for weights)?

"Just one more thing" (said Columbo), what tranny are you going with?


BTW, giggle gas = :cool:

The line you see going straight up is a vent line for the rear the other line you see in that pic is the rubber brake line for the rear. the y block is held with a banjo bolt so that the and the rear vents through the bnjo bolt. The only reason the rubber goes up to the body is to keep the oil in the rear when it gets whipped up from driving the rubber hose acts like a seperator and lets the air out and oil runs back down the sides into the tranny.

also if you write you code for the pic like this-


img src=blahblah width=800 or less

and use <> instead of []

Then the picture get resized enogh not to have to scroll sideways to read the post.

THe blahblah is where you would put where the pic is and the width is how many pixels wide you want it to be on my machine resolution is at 1152x864 and 800 width is enough it might even be better to make the width 600 or so depending on how high there machine resolution is set at.
