The garage was in a complete state from running out of time to tidy up the last few weeks. My plan for this weekend was mainly to sort it out, then get on with a few little jobs. I ended up having to do some jobs on the Camaro first, so had a quick test fit of the radiator to see if it would still fit with the intercooler plumbing. It didn’t. Not the end of the world, I just need to get angled outlets welded on so not too bad. I spent a few hours on Sunday going through all the boxes of bits from the F100 and deciding what to keep and what to junk, then packed it all up in boxes to put in the shed. That left a load of space free, so I moved all the bits around so that I had plenty of space to get around the car.

The prop yoke would not engage on the gearbox, nor would it go into any of the spare ones, so I removed the UJ’s so that I could work on it easier then gave it a good clean up and greased it. With that all done it fitted without any more hassle so I could measure up to have the prop made. A quick check of the axle joint and that has a different size UJ mount. Better get another one of those as well. With that done, I got the front up in the air and climbed under to swap out the gearbox mount with the new one. The old one was a temporary cut down one, so it took a little bit of maneuvering to fit. While I was under there, I pulled the rack out so that I can get the fittings measured. I also worked out where I was going to mount the power steering reservoir and measured up for the pipework. Not much else to report, waiting for the Street & Performance headers to arrive so that I can get the car to Zane’s for the exhaust.
