71 Javelin Road Racer Build

[Bulletpruf]

Engine and trans are in. Installed together so I didn't have to crawl under the car and do the T-10 bench press.



Definitely wasn't easy; the Armando's pan is a very tight fit on the crossmember. Had to get the angle just right for it to drop down on the motor mounts. Will finish bolting it all up today (trans crossmember, driveshaft, etc) and then get it loaded up and on the trailer.

Once I get to Georgia, I might break the engine in while it's in the engine bay (also have an engine test stand that I can use) but will end up pulling it back out so I can do a decent job of patching all the factory holes in the firewall and painting the engine compartment.
