Re: 67 SWB First Build
It’s been a hot minute since I last did an update. I ended up figuring out my clearance issue earlier this summer. It was more of a user error more than anything. I’ve slowly been assembling the engine and buying some miscellaneous parts. Engine is currently pre-oiled and ready for the valve covers and intake manifold. My new serpentine belt system showed up last week and I’ll hopefully get that installed soon.
Slowly getting closer to getting the engine into its final resting place! Fingers crossed it won’t blow up on me! |

Re: 67 SWB First Build
Engine is coming along. Installed the serpentine belt system and also did a dry fit of the engine. I need to get my 700r4 rebuilt, next. The Holley sniper 2 kit arrived earlier this week, too. Looking forward to getting that installed.

Re: 67 SWB First Build
I’m still chipping away at it. Engine bay is slowly coming together. So far I’ve installed 90% of the sniper system and roughed in most of the wiring. Intermediate steering shaft slipped right into place, too.
Not sure when I’ll get it fired up, but I’ll be looking forward to the day! |
