I replaced the complete floor years ago, came out of a Monte Carlo with a split bench seat. These are some photos from a long time ago when I was working hard on it.

that means nothing.Let's see...it was fully assembled when you brought it home, and now...not so much
Adjusted the neutral safety switch in the B&M floor shifter
Flushed my radiator, heater core, water pump and intake. Refilled with antifreeze and water then ran to operating temp with the cap off to ensure all air was out revving occasionally to make sure fully circulated filled the overflow and replaced the radiator cap with a new safety 16psi unit. Sprayed out the condenser radiator and trans cooler with the hose to hopefully clean the fins checked between the radiator and condenser there was nothing in between.
T’d my vent line from the charcoal canister into my pcv line so it ran to the carb replaced all my vacuum lines with new and zip tied it all away from the engine.
Added my mr gasket fuel regulator and even with Teflon tape and good and tight fittings wouldn’t you know it based on the review the inlet fitting was leaking immediately since I had no time to fix it right and couldn’t afford a better so handy dandy RTV time slopped it all the way around the fitting and looks as though it may have sealed it haven’t seen any gas yet this morning thankfully.
Also read on the forums that the mr gasket never corresponds to the real psi so currently set to 4 until I have time to truly test and see how far off it is.
Then this morning found out after all that cooling system work I’m not sure if something got worse with it or that the previous gauge sending unit wasn’t reading correctly and now that I replaced it I have a true reading. Also wondering if maybe the ac is running the temp so far up because no matter what I do I swear that clutch doesn’t cycle.
And then of course have to drop my float levels and get a phenolic spacer because even with all the changes it still seems to be heat soaking the carb and causing it to flood when off and hot.

If u have a fitting in your thermostat neck while it is running and hot crack the fitting open to let out any air pockets in the system
then YOU'RE FOOOKED!!!!!!!!!!
Jack up the passengers side of the can so that the filler neck is higher than the engine and repeat what you did already

Ok cool that seems like a good plan. So those bubbles don’t seem to be sign of a head gasket issue right?

Got a bit done, never as much as I want or need to though. Got a trim panel for behind the radio mocked up, I like the way the POR looks now. Then in the rear fought with getting 6x9's in for a bit. But with the huge magnet I am now thinking about just running them like that and fiberglassing it in
