I got the 3.8 and the th200 out. Had it on craigslist. A guy is planning on putting it in a ford anglia. Best of luck to him. I have a lot of real estate to work on now. Was thinking of using POR-15 on the frame and underside. Anyone have experience with this stuff? I bought a small kit off of amazon to try it out before I spend crazy money on a gallon.

Accumulating more parts. Speedway uppers, some used clamshells that I'll re-bushing with poly, and solid body mounts. Probably get the 8 point roll bar next. Progress has been slow. Trying to work on the house and the car at the same time.

Cool build, can't wait to see some numbers. Any idea on rear gears/convertor yet?

 

[Garrett1982]

I'm thinking a 3500 stall and 4.11's with a 28 inch tire. Still tenative, I haven't ordered any of those yet.

Powerstop rotors came in today for my Blazer spindles and hubs.

Used the same rotors for my swap and 2 years hard driving still look new and stop great! 8) you using the heavy *ss dual piston blazer calipers? I upgraded to c6 base calipers if not the ls1 f body ones would be my next choice..
