Will do.I'm at a time-out for the car right now until funds build back up.I'm coming along well.I got the GT40P engine for super cheap,and have acquired most of the parts I need to build it.I'm basically down to seals and gaskets....after the heads are done.I have finned aluminum Cobra valve covers,but I'm thinking I may want something different.I'm looking around.I like a factory look,but not factory (????). I like the idea of a built AOD.I often miss mine.I could bark the tires in the first 3 gears,plus,no constant shifting in this small town.BUT,I have to say,the 5 speed changed the Sport's whole attitude.I won't go back to an automatic with car.Good luck with the build.I hope to see some pics soon.I need to post a few new ones myself.
