crossmember completed/radiator installed

[skysoldier173rd]

My brother who is a great engine man came over and we spent most of the day cleaning up a bunch of miscellaneous vacum leaks, wiring the converter lockup switch, setting timing and generally tuning up the engine. Was able to yard drive it a little, brakes aren't good enough to hit the streets. This v8 auto is sure different than the old 6 with the granny 4 spd. Very responsive with the 700r4/v8 given the low rear end. The brakes are next and then it goes to the exhaust shop. I already installed the headers and the shop will put on the dual flowmasters/H Pipe and custom fab the rest of the exhaust. Can't wait till this is my daily driver.
