drive it no matter what it looks like. I had a fresh total rebuilt well running motor in my cutlass, but didnt drive it cuz it needed some paint bad. By the time I got it painted and lookin good, the wires were corroder,the distrib was gone and the new starter was fried due to headers and idle heat..and the tires dry rotted. So with a little over 4 grand in all the stuff needed for paint, when it came time to drive it was no good. So i would say Drive it as much as you can and make it pretty as you go......anything to get away from the bug.

 

I am just wondering if it would make sence to put all that work into the motor just to remove it again to get all the other work done.

 

Yes it would be. you'll have the fenders and front clip off, I'm sure. At that time pullin the motor will be cake...if you have a cherry picker.

 

yes I know from first hand pull the clip

 

yes they will fit,i have a set of fuelly heads too with the bolt holes,ported smooth all set-up with new stainless valves and they are dated as a matching pair(very rare from what im told).....i had them on my camaro back when it was going 12.4....11 to 1 keith black and a solid cam and fuelly heads/double hump....they now sit in my closet in bags,oiled...those heads work great..

 

You mean the double hump heads from the 327 to fit the 350?

 

clp I see u need new floors are u gonna order a whole new peice or what?

 

The car came with both floor pans (full) and a trunk pan. I just need time now, the weather is perfect for working on cars here. At work we are people short so all the 'supervisors' have to work extra to give the 'less rank' guys more time off.

 

I have a trunk pan if u know anyone who is looking for one

 

Are you doing most of the body yourself or having a shop do some?
