Tomorrow is the big day! The 360 (ran on a test stand) is ready to go into my 1973 Duster and it's getting TTI full length headers. Duster has power steering and power brakes, a mini starter, and 904. I will be using a lift at the college's auto shop. Any tips or tricks I should know?
1) Would it be better to pull the 318 out attached to the transmission and then bolt up everything together - 360 to 904, headers and starter installed - outside the car?
2) Or should I pull the 318 leaving the transmission in the car and then drop the 360, putting on the headers when it is in the engine bay? Bolt up transmission before or after header install?
3) Also, do I need to drop the center link?
Thanks!
