Those Michigan winters are devastating to Musclecars. Why don't you let me keep it in warm, Southern Illinois for a few months. She'll be in good company and she'll be able to 'breathe' once in a while.

That is right Dennis. The REAL car guys had one car garages with a propane salamander blowing in when we changed clutches in January. The rich guys had big garages for their boats and golf clubs! Never bothered us grease monkeys in those days.

You had a garage?

Did you ever hear the term "Shadetree Mechanic"? Where do you think it originated?

Well it's been a long winter. Look at what you find when a person starts cleaning parts to re-insert everything you took out before storage.

Inside of bellhousing above and outside of bellhousing below.

Looks like someone had a pressure plate failure at some point.

Well it's been awhile since I've added anything to this,but here goes.
Heres the new power plant installed in the car.












And a little run in video from a couple of months ago.It was about 45 degrees out when I ran it.


Gotta click on the picture to play the video.

Gonna put a Tremec RS600 behind it.Should run 2200rpm at about 75 mph on the highway.

Can't wait.
