It was a little slow due to Easter, but....
BTW Jeff, the angle wasn't an illusion, it was off by 3 degrees as noted below..
Thursday April 13th: Went and picked up a set of F-body exhaust manifolds, picked up some Trans Fluid and found the actual CORRECT pinout for the wiring harness.
Saturday April 14th: Expected to bolt the manifolds on only to find out that they don't work. Started getting ill. Apparently I need to get some headers now. After a bit of a lull, we decided to check the drivetrain angle. It was OFF by about 3 degrees (chassis is not loaded yet). So now I need to make a new trans crossmember. The Tranny tail needs to come up some. Since all of the parts are not yet on the truck, we decided to mock up the frontend and get the tilt ready for mounting and load the chassis and recheck before making a new transmount.
We decided to mount the cab back on and check for fuel line mounting clearance, transmission clearance and firewall clearance.
While we had it on we decided to get the bumper mounted and then get ready to chop the rad support for the tilt frontend. We mounted the '81-87 bumper bracked on the '80 frame and then mounted the bumper.
