After what seems like forever (at least 3 years) My 67 is running again. I know a lot of you have done your own builds and such. This was my first full engine build as well as swapping in the AOD and I can't tell you how good I feel. I have worried night and day about if I may have forgotten something or not tightened something just right but today she held together through the break in. Is holding about 60 psi oil pressure and running at 190 in a garage with just the electric spal fan keeping it cool. EXCITED!!!!!

The warmest she got was about 220 and that was during the 3000 RPM break in. Pics will come as soon as we finish hiding all the wires and button everything up.

I now have to finish the interior and install the stereo infinity 6 1/2s as well as the 10" alpine sub. Also Finish the Trunk. I feel like I have been overhauled but I had t pay for it. lol

Awesome! Congratulations.
I'm also in the process of my first engine build and AOD swap. I'll be waiting anxiously to hear how it turns out and see some pics. Also, anything you would've done differently?
