still need to replace the seals, but it's all cleaned and painted. and I got the short shifter to work smoothly as well and installed the new ball

myfree7 · 11-17-2013, 10:55 PM

:twisted:

stainless clutch line, throw out bearing, shift fork boot, competition trans mount and seal kit...

myfree7 · 11-17-2013, 10:56 PM

trans mounted to motor and all wired up ready for install

this little bastard.......... this is where the tee fitting is for the coolant under the oil mount. i couldn't yank it out so i cut it off now i'm trying to get it out of the motor so i can plug the whole up and install the motor. which IS happening tomorrow lol. i also have a new pitman arm and a full energy suspension kit with an aftermarket alt. tensioner to install as well

myfree7 · 11-17-2013, 10:57 PM

couldn't get the piece out so i taped it in and drilled out the hole and plugged it with a rubber expansion plug.

myfree7 · 11-17-2013, 10:58 PM

the way i mounted the clamp for the wires i had to get a longer bolt and tap out the hole for the starter.

almost ready!

myfree7 · 11-17-2013, 10:59 PM

got an aftermarket alt. tensionor from Bonzie racing, but had to modify it to fit with the gilmer belt drive

after cutting it down and drilling a new hole the factory mounting spot would not work. it would hit the dizzy so i mounted it a little farther in and it works great.

still a long way to go, but it's in!

header and racing beat hoses installed

myfree7 · 11-17-2013, 11:00 PM

Modified the oil cooler today to make it fit. Then started hacking up my $150 racing beat oil lines to make them fit as well. Also ordered a 3 row radiator today.
