74 Duster Project

Great job so far! It looks like you were able to find a 5.9 Magnum block to build your motor. If it runs as good as it looks, you'll be thankful for having PS...lol. Are you going to run headers? If so, bolt them up to the motor to check clearances on the block before you put the motor in the car. Some headers will hit the motor mount pads that were used for the mid mounted motor mounts required in trucks and vans. You can just grind those down until they clear the header tubes and touch up the paint. You should be able to buy brand new spool mount type motor mounts at Rock Auto to bolt the motor right in your Duster.

Congrats on retirement! I retired on 4-1-23. I used to make fun of the old guys who retired from work, when they would say " I have no idea how I ever had time to work!" Now I get it, lol. Busier than I've ever been.
