SO the PSI harness is very well made and is laid out very nice but I can't leave well enough alone. I will be hiding and re-routing just about every wire in the car so I went ahead and picked up some techflex to replace all of the plastic split loom. I will try to post pictures as I work through this part of the build but it will be a long, tedious process lol.

My Wegner front drive setup also arrived. The water pump came in just as a stock cast LS2 water pump so I spent a little time with the dremel before painting the water pump. I also pulled the barbs for the heater hoses and tapped those for AN fittings. Last you will see the inlet/outlet are setup with -20 AN fittings to match my Autorad radiator.

And also some pictures of the front drive system in place. Only thing not installed is the ATI damper and crank pulley but those will be going on soon.

And I will close with some overall shots of the engine bay. I went ahead and installed the driver side fender and inner fender so I can start figuring out how to the plumb everything in this car. Pretty much everything is being done in AN hoses and AN Fittings and hardline so I expect this phase to take me quite a while to complete. Thanks for looking!

Wegner makes a nice looking front drive sistem. The car is looking great! Motor looks good in there.

Thanks guys! Hopefully I can keep things going and get this thing to paint...

Did I mention that I have a 55 2 door Bel Air up next when I finish this one lol...

Nice, something else to watch going together.. Post or hardtop?

lsuguy 10-17-2016 10:36 AM

I am 99% sure its a hardtop. My uncle bought it 20 years ago and stuck it in a field with the rest of his collection. He decided to give it to me a couple months back and I haven't made it up to his place to pick it up.

Its a single owner, all original car. They hooked a fuel can up to the carb and it cranked up lol. Depending on how much rust is there is going to determine if I go mild....or wild with the build.

Awesome build, can you post where you got the OEM Style switches from?

jeds 10-17-2016 03:36 PM

Awesome work. Things are looking super clean.

How difficult was it to remove the original radiator hose outlet on the water pump?

I have a Wegner kit arriving this week and plan to press in an A/N fitting as well.
