Sal,

I'll fire off some pics as soon as she's running. I still have to mount the carb linkage, plumb the fluid lines, and install the MSD. I plan on doing all that while everything is off at the coaters.

I wish it hadn't taken so long (don't we all), but work has been crazy. I've been trying to sneak in some quality garrage time on the occasional saturday, and early in the am before I go to work (ie 5:30 to 6:45 am).

I'd like to see some pic of the CSX once she hits the road. And, I'm curious what changes you made in your quest for originality? I may do some of the same, but I'm not sure that I'm willing to give up the CNC'd suspension just yet.

Sal,

Problems with not indexing the bellhousing come later from running the engine. Lakewood says you should be within .007, but most try to get half of that. Good luck, but from my understanding, that's eats tranny shaft bearings or engine bushings.
