Today, got the engine and transmsiion seperated. Engine is on the stand waiting for me. Took a break from homework to post this. Hoping to get the pan off tomorrow and see what's going on in there.

Hope it's not anything to serious

Unloaded the car today after getting in late last night. Took it out and left some rubber in the area.

I hope you left some rubber on those tires Ray.

Flash, can't wait to see in you Ohio.

With the posi it uses both sides, so I have equal wear on the tires. Lol

the whole back half of my car is sanded and ready to be primed. door hinges bushings are replaced now. if time is good tomorrow i can get the roof done once the roof is done i can clean it all up and mask it up and start the door jams i hope by weds :)

Sounds strangely familiar. Keep at it.

LOL yeah man i saw the way you did it and i said that is the way i am going to do it...lol

Got the pan off, went over EVERYTHING with a fine-toothed comb. Cannot find anything hitting or rubbing. Decided to move forward and swap camshafts and lifters.

That said, if anyone needs a good cam for a big block... I have one, barely used. It's a Crane Blueprint cam - tweaked for the pure stocks. The application is 350 & 360 HP 396, 385, 390, & 400 HP 427, and 70' - 72' LS5 454. It's a small cam by most standards, but packs some extra power due to the tweaks. I swapped to something slightly bigger that still fits the rules - in search of a few extra jigga watts.
