wow great job on that wiper motor it looks great. 
Ya get that 440 on the stand you need some garage art 
Hey Greg do you have a trans yet?
Thanks, Scott; it was a bunch of time spent with a wire toothbrush at the work bench (or, as my wife says, "picking weeds.") I still have a little more to get at in the deeper recesses of the transmission case that will require a Dremel to get at, plus the rewiring. Anyone know, can I use standard plastic insulated wiring inside the motor casing or do I need to find cloth insulated? Originality is not important.
The 440 is on the stand, it's just not assembled. I started to put it together a few months back, but ran into piston fitment issues (see page 11) and then machine shop issues, so I put it on the back burner for awhile and am going to concentrate on doing some of the other things necessary to get the car back together and running - interior, rewiring, maybe some of the exterior trim restoration - before tackling the engine again. I want to have the car ready to accept the engine when it's built. Ideally, that would include paint and body, but due to some time and money pressures, that will have to wait for another time. Oh, and yes, I do have the transmission - in fact, it's never been out of the car.
