Finally get to pretend I am one of the cool kids - Holley kit swap

Sorry, life happened. My wife had a full knee replacement just over 2 weeks ago so time out of the house has been pretty limited. Add that my borrowed extension cable for my welder had to go back so I can’t do any welding even if I was able to get into the garage to work.

I did get the upper welds done and the lower crossmember bolted in, so the trans is supported now and I could even move the car around if I wanted. I spent a little time starting to shape the sheet metal flaps over the crossmember to see if I could get it to fit, but without a welder I could only go far.

I did get some time outside last weekend and got my snowblower put away and the Christmas stuff up on the shelf and out of the way. While I was out there I slid the bench seat in just to see how it fit as I was curious. I have no plans to use the bench, but wanted to see if it was an option. It actually fit, but not great, the shifter clears but it is right at the front of the seat with the bench all the way back. I will post a picture this afternoon.
