After a fair debate, I decided to use Holley/Hooker swap system for the LS2 install. Starting with the engine frame mounts.

More LS2 mock up. Also using the Holley high mount accessory drive, and of course.. a Rick's Tank's RestoMod tank with a ZL1 pump Carl C's VaporWorx controller and harness will drive the pump.

That brings the post up to date, hopefully more updates will follow, in closer intervals

No plans yet on a color, but I do love Hugger Orange.

Funny story on this car.. it's actually a 1971 model car. It was first titled in November 1970, so DMV says it's a 1970.

Mock up continues. I'm lucky to be able to work from home. So, when the work day is done, it's garage time

I'm impressed with the Holley/Hooker LS swap mounts and transmission cross member. My car has stock height Global West solid body mounts. If you look close at the pictures, transmission fits, without major surgery, just a couple places to "massage"
