Engine is in the hole and bolted to the transmission, the motor mounts ended up lining up perfectly and bolts went in. Have the intake bolted on and the distributor back on. Tomorrow I will do the cap and rotor button, plugs and wires, valve covers, carb, and as much as possible. Hopefully have this thing ready to crank. Hopefully

Today was a productive day, carburetor is on, throttle cable and brackets on, fuel pump on wired and plumbed, vacume lines ran, cap and rotor button plugs and wires is on. New valve covers are on with nice new gaskets, thermostat is on, torque converter bolted to flywheel, starter on and wired, alternator bracket on too.

So, gas it up, hook up the fume tubes and head to GA. With 454 power, you will be passing everything but a gas station. Congrats, well done.
