Hey, with those two involved you're probably going to have to figure out how to slow it down to keep from getting HP!

Just a quick update on the 'Dog, car is all plumbed and wired, and the interior shampooed and I recovered the headliner ($1 worth of fabric from a yard sale), but then I hit a snag: the posi I got, is 30 spline, not 28. Time to choose, find a 28 spline 8.5" posi on the super cheap, or just use an airbag in the RR. That, and getting the drivetrain in, and its payoff time!

Well, I found a way around my posi dilemma, turns out the 91-96 GM sedans had the same length axles, but in 30 spline, so $25 scored me a pair of axles from a 92 Caddy. The rearend is now done!

This weekend, hopefully I can wrap up the engine and be ready to drop it in.
