Well turns out the altenator bracket and altenator or toast, taken out in the crash as well as the bolt tabs on the tranny tailshaft. So far not too bad other then the fact the altenator doesn't even have a replacement number so it looks like it's all dealer parts.....ugh....thats going to hurt I am thinking.
=========================================================
Well....have some fit issues....the A/C pump won't fit it hits the frame big time....Turns out I can't use that pump anyhow,Vintage air says it won't work on there system. The altenator hits the frame and the power rack. Well i think it does when i do the CSI part fit using a bunch of broken pieces.

=========================================================
The solution seems to be to rework the engine mounts....lift the engine 1" and move the mounting point back a 1" as well. The engine mounts that i used were PB's and the mounting point is in the very front of the engine pad...so moving it back a bit won't be too bad....then when we move it back 1" on the crossmember we will probaly need to be a bit creative but that should give me enough room to make it all work out.

Crosses my fingers

How is the swap coming?

It's going not bad....I have it as far as i can go while i wait for parts to arrive.....I don't want to finish the mounts off until i have the rest of the parts tucked in. I know if i wait it will clear and if i finish the fab.....it won't.....
