427 Rebuild

look how low the holes are for the heat shield over the brakes, mine on my CSX are an inch higher and the heat shield hits the pipes... This confirms the person who installed mine was drunk... add to the list of assembly issues with the CSX

Next up, fitting wiring components to the firewall etc.
Voltage regulator on passenger foot box, (think I will paint that blue cover black)
fresh air valve to the foot box installed, wiper motor mounted.
Time to make up and fit the dash then roll out some wire!

are you actually going to use the voltage reg or is it for show?

Making up the steering column, needed to machine up a few steering wheel hub nuts.

Next up I installed the diff, apart from the weight of the thing all went well.

Craig,


Looks nice. Yes, they are heavy. I recall struggling with mine during the install, a lot of weight and a tight space to fit it in.
