Steering is DONE!


Today we finished the steering rack mounting. It turned out WAY sweet! Danny machined up some threaded tubes to bolt the rack into and we notched them up into the new crossmember and welded them in.
We then mounted the engine and trans together and stuffed them into the engine bay. We mounted up the fenders and hood for a quick clearance check and then got the 24v-style motor mounts on the block. Looks like the motor mounts should be pretty easy to knock out on Tuesday. The tranny is even sitting about where the stock one did.
I got the floors all wire-wheeled and hit it with some rust converter. I will go back through tomorrow with POR-15 to finalize it.
Got our radiator measurements; looks like Summit will be providing that for us. Need to find a water-to-air intercooler solution also. More pics up in the gallery!
