Thanks for the update. It looks like it is going to be a very nice piece. Looking forward to get a gaze at it when it is done.

Progress has been slow but I did manage to get the cage painted this weekend.

How are you guys running your clutch linkage? will the factory kit be enough or should I build the rods?

Well.........almost

Ran into 2 problems..

1st motor mounts.
Not sure if the subframe got tweaked or the re pop frame mounts are off. Tried to shim the motor mounts but still fell about half a hole short. Hopefully a little grinding on the driver side frame mount will fix this.

2nd Drag link/oil pan clearance
Not sure if its a truck or corvette pan but the drag link is hitting on the corners. Is this a common problem?

Small block frame brackets and motor mounts will move the engine back about 3/4". -Al
