Lynn,

Just a few points that come to mind when switching back from BB to SBC and items you will need to have on hand in order to run it after it's done. Just thinking out loud here in case you maybe missed something in the swap. (in random order)
  • SBC Manifolds and Exhaust w/ Hardware
  • Oil Line Ferrule & Fittings
  • Carb Linkage (if changed)
  • Original SBC Mounts w/ Hardware
  • Radiator w Hoses (if changed)
  • Driveshaft (if different)

Assuming all the stock peripherals were kept with the original motor it all kinda goes without saying, but I always find there's something forgotten in terms of mounting hardware or some little hick up when a given peripheral isn't there and ready to bolt on.

Have fun with your weekend swap and post some pics when you can. I'd love to see this car and if it's ever offered, please post it here as I am sure there are many of us who would like a shot at it if'n it's going to be sold. I'm sure as I type this your PM box is lighting up.

Cheers...G
