Looks Good, now all you have too do is take off that hood emblem 😀 ,
I also am in the process of swapping in a 5 speed, just trying to round everything up so I can do it all at once.
Along with the 5 speed I am rebuilding a 350 that will be the all so well know 383 everybody has, wanted a 400 but couldnt find one in my neck of the woods. I also would have rather had a T56 but I seem to be smack dab in the middle of nowhere, where these parts are unheard of. I just got the set of buckets in that I got off of malibukid on here, I am trying to figure out where I need to cut the hole in the trans. tunnel for the shifter. I guess I can wait until I set the motor and transmission in(without the shifter) and just mark the spot right above the shifter hole to make the cut. I was curious as to how you were going to run the cross member for the trans, mine goes at an angle unlike the Monte Carlo that goes straight across. I would like to see more pics of your build if ya got em'.
Glad your doing good, after I was sick and came home from the hospital, I had my motorcycles carbs to keep me company. They kept me busy and my mind off what was going on, I focused my attention on them so I didnt have time to be bothered by other things.
