Work on the transmission has slowed due to the machining of the Torlon bushings. The bushings are awaiting end and ID feature machining.
The NOS training transmission did arrive and was exactly what I hoped for.
In the mean time, preparation for the new engine is moving forward. All components have been purchased - SDS, intake, injectors, ignition, gauges - except fuel pump. http://www.shoptalkforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=118181
One change from previous post in this blog is the distributor. I decided to go with a vacuum advance Mallory instead of mechanical only because the vacuum advance is known to improve driveability and fuel efficiency.
The new wiring harness turned out well. A lot of planning went into the design and will pay off with a clean installation.
And 24 lb/hr Ford injectors modified for FI intake runner
