    yahoo, my ch***is is finally done, nothing earthshattering (327, Muncie M21, bronco 9 inch) but i'm happy with it. This was my first 32 ch***is and I think now I overbuilt the center crossmember, but stout is good I guess, hopefully I wont have any other issues, brakes are bled, all new bearings/seals front and rear, my clutch bellcrank contraption seems like is going to work and the trans linkage shifts good, now i really want to drive this thing, takes forever when you're a one man show, not to mention the Katrina trashing. I switched to lincoln brakes in the front (VAPHEAD), they fit the buick drums even better than the '40 backing plates did, which still rubbed the drums just a tad.

    the exhaust is the next hurdle, the drivers side of the frame is really tight because of the 4speed linkage, clutch rod, and master cyl, hope I can get a good fit through the frame because I think I might want to run a full hood some times.
    anyway here's a few pics

    Looks sharp. A little overkill is OK on a frame. Looks good to me.
