reply to post #386 picture of engine hoist: need another choice for comments that says "NICE!"
flex hoses on the brake lines at the master, thumbs up.
do you have spacers between the k-frame and the body? I've got a set a friend made for his swap, thinking they are 3/8 to 1/2"?

Yes the cherry picker for a trans jack is the best. Just have the trans standing on end, roll up to it and slip the end in, bolt and up you go.

Today the under dash bracket went back in followed by the hemi back in place and then the transmission back into place afterwards. And after all that I still have only 1/4” space between the valve cover and the master cylinder. But that is enough!

I do plan on removing the transmission again to install a front billet drum but it can go into place so that I can finish all the first time stuff like making lines, cables, header install, etc.
I’m wondering if the transmission drops down between these TTI headers - anybody... I’d hate to have to drop a header again. On my RB wedge with TTI the trans comes out easy.

Hemi going back in again today. This time it is in to stay.

Trans going back in for the time being, for mock up.
