Well as y'all know I started the 302 swap... then ran outta time from school and then was gonna have a shop do it, till they wanted to redo it... well people, you don't need to be skeptical that I got it in, cause i FINALLY have photos! I'll be gettin back at this maybe spring break, but definately after school is out fer the semester! Pics are big, but I tried to cut the quality down... But they're still large as hell... my editing skills suck!

looks good, I cant wait to start my conversion should be end of summer maybe early fall, good luck!
 






I like the crossmember design!!! totally custom!

good luck on your engine conversion....?? whats holding ya up? just a time issue?

hey I can relate! (concerning the 5.0 conv)

let me know if ya got any wiring questions!
:)
 






What's holding me up, is that I'm at school now... Once I'm home for this semester, back to work I go on the project... Al, I'm still waiting to see your whole wiring diagram that'll allow me to do my wiring in under 3 hours!

As soon as I get my 5.0 conv......refinished.......I will try and find some free time to write it up. I can show ya how to wire it up in three hours....but it will take you countless hours to make it look pretty!!!!!!!! (ie; soldering, heat shrink, tape, placement, etc) I used wire ties originally, just to check to make sure that everything worked, before I wired it perfectly.
 






I want it to work, be safe and secure... Stock looking isn't a big deal to me at the moment.. as long as it's wired up, is going to be safe and what not, I'll be happy... It may be a project waaaaaaaay down the road to make everything look factory, but I don't see that happeneing... Luckly, I've got 2 months till I start work on this again!
