spent all day wednesday putting the topend together, new starter, cleaning, arranging, ect. got to the starter and found the flywheel had broken teeth, so it needed replaced asap.
tonight we put in a new king cobra clutch, pilot, rear main, tob, flywheel, march tensioner/ac eliminator kit. i also had nasty exhaust leaks from the old header gaskets, fixed that.
car is now running pretty strong hopefully. had good compression, no smoke, tomorrow i put in a serpentine belt and go drive it.
gotta give props to member; mustang78 off here. he came and helped me both long nights, couldn't have done this without his help.
