this week and weekend I was able to get the detent cable installed, core support mocked up install the radiator bend my SS trans cooling lines enough to get them installed proper. Last was the rad hoses seeing I set the motor rearward a bit I had to be creative with the stock top rad hose next couple days ill get some gauges hooked up temporary to monitor temperature and oil pressure I also hooked the fuel line to carb and fed the fuel pump from a gas can eureka
