69 Z06 Camaro

Love this project! From previous project pics I've seen, using the Vette drivetrain sometimes creates a cramped space (floor height, tunnel, etc.) in a first gen Camaro. Just curious if you've looked at that and if it's an issue? Also, is the block new or used?

Keep goin' Jeff!

I had to be a little careful on seat choice as I wanted them to fit down between the frame rails and not on top of them. So far it's working fine, as I get the thread up to date I'll get those pictures up. I'm working on the floor and trans tunnel now.
Block is new as used motors didn't seem to come up much when I was looking and didn't want to put out the money all at once for a new motor although in the long run it might have been better.
BTW enjoy the builds you have going.

Front of frame coming together, engine and rack and pinion mounts.
Everything is cell phone pictures so sorry for not being steady enough when taking some of them.
