Connected up my air compressor and started on the underside fiberglass repairs. This is the spare tire well, where a hot 2" tailpipe caught contents of the spare tire well on fire during an open road race after an extended stint at wide open throttle. To the right is the modification to the trunk floor to accomodate the current 2 1/2" tailpipes
I pulled one of the motor mount brackets off the LT1. With careful slotting, it will pick up two of the mounting bosses on the new block. As is, it sits forward about 1/4 inch. I'll need a 4 x 9" plate to pick up two more bosses on the block and two more bolt holes on the motor mount bracket.
This is the closest I'll be to driving the car before summer. Between Friday night and today, pulled the wiring harness off the motor, pulled the truck intake, the exhaust manifolds, A/C compressor, motor mounts and starter. Also laid the LS1 intake in place of the truck intake.
