Well, 2 weeks ago was my "project day #6" post where we put the engine back in. I've only had a few scattered hours since then to do any work....(since it's summer, I need to be a good Dad and spend some time with my daughters, which I have).

Today marks 8 weeks since the first day we yanked the engines. I was hoping to crank it up by 8 weeks, but we werent able to get together this week to do much. Never-the-less, there is at least still forward Progress.

*Got a lot of CHrome bolts/nuts/washers over the last week...ACE hardware near my house has a WHOLE section of chrome hardwared.

* Fox TB/plate/bracket/wire assembly is complete with the Intake...just need to install the intake.

* Re-loomed some harnessed and have a few more to go
*re-routed some of the stock harnesses.
*Vortech and power pipe intalled.
*Radiator, fan, hoses in place.

Main stuff left to do is all the harness connections, fuel lines, A/C lines. PS lines and vacuum hoses.

Connect gauges, MSD6BTM, and all switches.

Connect Drive shaft and H-Pipe.

Get shifter inside the car finished.


Planning on the next BIG project day 2 weeks from today...7/26. Hoping to get 'er fired up within a week or so of that date.

Thanks for all who have helped and contributed info so far

Getting close, hope you reach your target date. Projects often do not get finished in the time frame first put up. With mine it got into the shop later then what I wanted it to (which was good and bad at the same time). It went in on June 24th and it should be all done tomorrow or tues and be able to pick it up on weds.
