I pulled my old 2.8 + tranny myself and sold it for $100. I was lucky to get that, ha. The dizzy you bought is it a standard size or a little smaller?

No reason. I've never seen or heard of something like that. Any vids of them in action?

Ok so I am still working on it here and there. Here's what I have done recently. Installed the torsion bars, torsion mount, lower control arms, upper arms, knuckles, calipers, sway bar, ball joints. All of the parts have been powder coated of course. I also installed new pro comp ES9000 shocks along with a pro comp steering stabilizer. So the front end now has a full set of E.S. poly bushings, new moog ball joints, new calipers, new ATE rotors, stainless steel braided brake lines, bendix pads & seals. I am waiting for my new tie rod adjuster sleeves to come in and then I will remove and paint the tie rod ends. Not going to replace them as they are already moog's problem solvers.

At this point I just ordered in some more pieces for the engine. From Summit: Crane universal Firewire's spark plug wires, wire loom kit, fuel filter, Percey's aluminum header gaskets, stage 8 header bolts. I also ordered from db electrical 2 200 amp HO alternators. Also ordered 2 alt brackets made by Alan Grove. Lastly from Bill's Hot Rod Company a 300 series power steering pump bracket. Here are a couple pics of what will stop (hopefully) the new 350.

Looks good man. Will look even better once it's all together and installed. =) I went to the wreckers yesterday and got a non A/C heater box. Just need to find out how to wire it in. Today I was running around trying to find a couple things for the rad hoses (reducers and a splicer) and nobody around here has anything. What a joke. So I will be calling JTR tomorrow I guess.

nice engine, are you sure its a 350? those heads look like camel hump 327 casting. youll have trouble with belts with no bolt holes in head.
