Re: Well....
Getting there.
Skimming the boards quick, then heading out there for a while before the USC-Texas game.
Gonna try to have the radiator up in it tonight.

No compliments?  Funny because even as crappy as it sounded in the video ive heard many 70 Chevelle SSs sound the same way.

Re: Well....
Routing for Texas.
Just had enough of USC.
Anyways...looks like I need to pick up a 5/8" open head rachet wrench. Hope Home Depot has one.

It will rev.
It is a brand new motor. This was the first start-up.
Gotta get a base tune on it, break it in, then dyno tune it. Then it will be seeing good numbers.
Give me some time here....revs and action shots will follow.

Re: Well....
Got the radiator installed.
All the hoses as well. Including the power steering cooler.
Drained the tranny. Need to fill tomorrow.
I still need to add coolant to radiator.
Driveshaft loop is up, torque arm needs to follow.
Rear control arms need installed.
Wiring under car needs hung up properly.
Need to find a bellow to install between the MAF and the throttle body. The one I have doesn't fit.
Need to bleed the brakes.
Basic tune is coming Wednesday/Thursday.
Couple pics....
After looking at it...I decided I will be painting the area marked here.
It will be the same black as the airbox lid.
