Kenny thanks I needed that  :ylsuper: Nice Work Buddy!

Ya gotta do what ya gotta do to eat and them Chevy guys have money.  :money:

I have been swamped at work and kicking myself on all the little stuff trying to make it look right. :pullinghair:

I was going to run temporary tranny lines but I had to stop because I did not know where the shifter linkage was going to run next to the trans pan. I have found more stuff that I need to complete in order to complete something else. :banghead:

I picked up a fuel regulator but I wasn’t able to get the all the fittings I needed to finish hooking up the fuel line, my front rotors are backordered and I cannot find my new braded break lines in the basement.  :swear:

One more week and I have 4 weeks off 2weeks to work on the car and 2 weeks for our family trip.  :blah: :blah: :blah:


    Thanks For keeping me in your thoughts  :cheers: everyone!

 :bananasmi Hey DB :wave: ,

It will all come together soon enough buddy.  Stay cool and spend a little more time thinking through proceedures or ask for advice hear if your stuck :2thumbs:  Would it be better to make hard lines for your auto like factory torqueflites had :dunno: would be really neat way to go.  I personally do not like to use much rubber line but know it needs to be in certain places for flex. :crazy:

Take care old mate. :clapping:

Hey Ken That’s what I started to do is bend some hard lines, But I dint have any linkage on the trans so I decided to hold off to avoid a mistake.
I am putting in an auto to get it running then the 5 speed in the winter.

I found some powder coated hard lines at a local hotrod shop for a great price.  :money: Should make some great contrast with the black and yellow.

Any rubber will be braded hose except the radiator and heater hose

I put my hydro boost in today  I will post pictures later.

Thanks Pal I need some encouragement.  :2thumbs:
