The engine sounds nasty, and your car looks fantastic. Looks like you are well on your way to completion.

I had my own 540 Built this year using all Dart stuff.
Have you driven the car yet?
Once you do you will never want to get back into anything else.
The 540 combo has so much torque!!!!
I can be driving at 85mph and still put the car sidewaysDocumented 302 Z-28 car updated restoration underway.
