Haven't touched it since pulling the motor. My cheapo HF engine stand doesn't work with the 454- the holes don't line up right and I really don't trust it to hold this thing up.

BUT! I did find...

I don't believe mine had the aluminum coating. Looked like plain old white paint to me. Which I think looks cooler anyway. Like I said, I think I'll use regular header paint for now, and then after...

Ironically enough, a post on this very forum has answered my header question!

They're Blackjack headers. Good to know!

Here's the driver's side header. Also, the very green torque converter. I don't know if it's a stocker or how to even tell that.

That's probably what'll happen. I'll likely lower the engine in with the car on the ground, and then jack it up to get everything underneath buttoned up and the headers on.

I'll nab some pictures...

Thanks for the info! It's a 19 or 19.5 inch opening if I measured it right.

The motor is out! It actually wasn't that hard, either. I'd done a good deal of prep work. Of course the driver's...

Good eye! Stamped I L so it very well could be the original radiator for the car. That fan will be replaced with an OE style. I don't know what brand is on it but I've heard enough stories about the...

I wonder if that's playing into the overheating issues that have plagued this car for 20 years. The shroud looks kinda funky too

Tags are long gone.

Also, is this the right fan for a big block car? It's 7 blades but to my uninformed eye they look awful short. Maybe smaller= faster, I don't know.

I got it out already. I'll take some pictures tomorrow. Be forewarned, it's a good example of why I need to learn how to slow down and pay attention. It's probably gonna need to be re-cored after the...

Good advice, thank you! If I do pull the headers it's definitely after the engine is fully out. For now I'll just find a way to hold them away from the heads as you suggest

I still have those. They're actually '64 Impala seats and I stuck em in the rafters of the garage.
