I know, I suck cause I didn't take pictures but I finally got the car running again this week. I gave up fighting to access the leaky freeze plug so I pulled the motor and replaced all of em along with leaky gaskets...Rear main, oil pan, valve covers and front seal and timing cover since it was torn down. I was nervous as Hell cause I'd hadn't done that in years and couldn't afford to break it more..lol. I still have to get some tweeking done and change the fluids again in a bit to make sure I get out any crap I might have left in it. Got it back from the muffler shop last night only 3 months after I set out to put the double humped x mem in and get the duals on in the first place.

Once I readjust the timing and get something outta my piss poor carb rebuild job, I'll be ready to do at least some cruising
