DB - Great work.  I love the way you put the engine in the car.  I may have to try that when it comes time to do mine. :clapping: :2thumbs:  Of course, it means unbolting a lot of stuff I've already put together... :dunno:

Travis, almost as nice as yours.  :drool:

Hi DB,
 How did the exhaust senario pan out for you............. :drunk:

  I called Ted from the mopar super center they had a set of pipes off a car they added headers to.  :working: So he is sending me them so I don’t need to use my home made set.

   What a great guy he is to work with, one of the good guys and in my black book for parts places to call first, next time I need something.

Awesome Job DB!

Hey what are the dimensions on that rad?  I'm looking at fans now and need some ideas.  Mine is 22x18.5 on the core.  Yours looks close.

Thanks, I'll keep it in mind.  I really need to see what kind of clearances I have to work with first.

Looking good, Your keeping me motivated!! I got the door tracks and runs all back together and front power window regulators in. Was surprised at how nicely they bolted in for an aftermarket piece. Will have to sell how well they work when done.
