The metal bracket that is in your second picture goes where the plastic battery hold down is bolted at. The hole that his higher is for the stud on the header panel and the lower one goes to the core support or vise versa. In the picture you are holding it wrong and should be turned to where...

That run is with the original Holley mufflers that come with the exhaust kit? They're advertised as aggresive-moderate and I thought they would sound a lot louder that.

What type of mufflers do you have?

Finally!!! This is without exhaust. Boy was I happy it cranked right over without any problems.

It does not. You will need to take the interior panel around the window and remove the nuts and some small brackets to remove it. There is some sticky window sealant that is hard to get off and extremely sticky when taking the glass out, so make sure you don't get it on anything.

Thanks, I do plan on going with an aftermarket HVAC system next year. for the lower hose I used Gates 22354.

Just a lil update...

Radiator, hoses, air intake w/filter, spark plug wires and boots are all on order. I'm hoping all goes well and I can crank her up this Saturday... I still have some wiring to do and tightening up a few nuts and bolts... I'm going to strap on three feet of of 3 inch exhaust piping until I...

This is how far I've gotten these past months. I have work left on the harness and wiring, power steering hose, vacuum hoses. Things I need are radiator & hoses, fans, cold air intake, exhaust system and driveshaft.

Sweet, I like to think that painting is like riding a bike...she looks good and I can't wait to see her painted! Keep us posted and welcome to the forum!
