It's Sunday night, what did you get done this weekend?

I got my Turbo 400 kickdown all figured out. It's waayyy freaking trick too (billet and stainless). Repainted and detailed a bunch of emblems. Got all of the parts together for a trick aircraft inspired accelerator linkage. I did tons of last minute details for the engine swap.

The big block should go in next weekend.

Found a guy with NOS bigblock exhaust manifolds on Ebay for 25 bucks each. That solved the exhaust issue. Found a pair of new Dynomax Super Turbos in my attic I had forgotten about. They are 2 1/2 inch and just right for the 454.

Had to get all new cab mounts so the TH400 would clear the low hump cab I have. If the mounts sag much at all, the cab hits the tranny. My dealer had to order the mounts, apparently he sold 4 sets last week alone. Must be a theft ring for cab mounts in Texas.

My billet grille should be in from Summit Thursday too.

When this is done, I'll have a 454, auto tranny, power brakes, power steering, tilt column and 72 front clip on the truck all in one big thrash. It's going to be a big change from the 6 cylinder 3 speed on the column and manual steering truck I started with.

WHAT DID YOU GET DONE THIS WEEKEND?
