not sure if they will stay polished or not. the welds on the rear are plastidiped. so i may plastidip these. or repolish the rears

in other news... with the quick time bell housing you need shorter bolts. and since fords about as bright as a blown out lightbulb when it comes to using standard parts. no one had a 7/16" bolts in stock. my ass ordered them from mcmastercarr (best website ever for ordering botls) they should be here today. i got some fancy flange headed 12 points

for anyone doing a C4 swap down the road with this bell housing. you need a 7/16" x 1.5"

I hate anything 7/16" bolt wise what a terrible idea! The only thing worse was my old Kurgan blower brace that was 9/16" fine thread. When i had to make a new center support tube I had to buy rh and lh 9/16 taps ( a small fortune....) and 9/16 chromoly all thread rod rh and lh. tell me how easy that was to find..... Mcmaster had the taps but not the all thread rod.

I go there all the time. They sell everyting by the each, and since i usually only get a few little odd nuts, bolts, etc, they rarely even charge for them! Win win

finally getting back on this the last few weeks

budget ran dry so i had to wait for some more side jobs.
picked up a B&M pro shifter (still want the PPP down the road)
picked up 2 cross members 1 of which had trashed tubes which is why i ended up buying a 2nd one
picked up new urethane bushings for the cross member. and to all you jack asses who jack up on the trans cross member brackets... EAT A DICK! my brackets were so bent and twisted up it was a real PITA to get the cross member back in
ran the trans cooler lines and got the driver side header in. going to be clamping down the cooler lines tonight and putting passanger header in. need to jack the motor up to get the header past the separator plate and the K member

then its wire up the trans brake
change the front coil overs
and get front tires
