Thanks

 

Dang i see what you mean hmm i might end up having to do sething similiar havent really though hard about the piping yet...

 

Yeah i left the piping for last to be able to think through what i wanted to do.

 

Yeah how did you run the power steering lines ? B/c i still have the fc lines but using the fd steering pump ?

 

I had one of the bottom lines blocked and welded off and got a custom hose with fittings made to fit the bottom fc line and the fd line. I just took these pics now at night so you can see

 

nice hmm i am trying to decide if it is worth it to keept the power steering or not this isnt my daily its going to be an autox car so i dont technically need it buttt i do love power steering especially since the fc is so heavy.... you did a good job on yours though i am going to try and figure out which way im going to go.

 

Yeah i know what you mean. Mines actually a daily diver for me so i decided to keep it.

 

What throttle cable did you use?

 

my pickups came in today installing them tom. just waiting on the front pulley and trigger wheel so i can crank it cant wait to hear it !

 

FC cable. It works well Its just long as hell tho.

 

I used the FC p/s pump, modified the mount and then modified the REW pulley to fit the FC pump, then you can leave the wiring and the hoses alone.

 

Sorry, can't edit my post, forgot to mention I used the FD throttle cable too.

 

No sure if you mentioned this, but where you pick the motor up from and for about how much?

 

oh okay thanks for the advice i think i will use the fd throttle cable and still look into the power steering if it gets to the point that i really need it.

 

i picked up just the block from a friend of mine for $100 got lucky on that but it needed a rebuild b/c his oil line blew out so i had to change everything on the inside the bearings were shot.

 

Damn that's still a good find. You said you made your own mounts if I'm not mistaken correct? You have a pic of them if you did? I'm interested to see the design you came up with. I plan on using on of my subframes to molest and fab for my rew swap so it would be nice to get some more ideas.

 

I welded a bar from each side of the subframe in the back near the tranny, then test fit a rear plate and marked the bar for the bolts then drilled it out. there are several different ways but i didnt like the motive fab mounts. and the bar was way easier to make.

 

if you can some pics of that would be great ^

 

x2

 

secrettssss lol but i didnt take any actually haha once i was done the engine went right in i will try to get one from the side...

 

ok i found one picture that my fiance took while we were fabing the mount!

 

so i have the igniter, thermostat housing, and FD throttle cable all on the way then i will start it cant wait to hear this baby fire up!

 

video will need to be posted on here as soon as its on!

 

Will do !

 

like the build cant wait to see the video
