Details.... part 26

Well after getting snowed out last weekend, I made some more progress Saturday!

Covered the frame rails with a Harbor Freight moving pad and trimmed out around the engine frame mounts...



















Got the engine set into the car...




































the engine side of the AC firewall housing mounted and the headers installed to check for clearance issues.















































Happily there's not a problem at the evaporator housing like I was afraid of...


















































but I think the only spot that's questionable is the clearance at the steering box...




















I'm not 100% sure if there's an issue or not... the engine may be tipped back just a bit because the transmission isn't attached and supported by the tailshaft mount. May have to pull the engine back out, hang the transmission and reinstall to confirm if there's a problem or not. FUN, FUN, FUN!

Stay tuned!
