After determining that the pan will be acceptable......I decided to pull the engine out again so I could finish up changing the steering box from that super slow stock ratio manual box to a Jeep Grand Cherokee power steering box....Three turns lock to lock.......I also can now finish "Clearancing" the trans tunnel to fit the new trans..........and I also removed the gas tank so it can be modified to work with the new fuel system.........also removed were the front Drum Brakes which will be replaced with Discs........Mark is bringing over the balance of parts next week so we can do the final assy...........This was hard the first time I did it , but..........LOL...........Also here are some more pic's from the underside of the car..........Just Amazing......

I don't know your plans for A/C, but if you are trying to keep the factory stuff, you can swap the evaporator core for one from a later car (I used '79 Trans Am in my '72 442) with the accompanying receiver/drier and cycle switch to give you a cycling compressor.
In my Jeep, I am using the '79 T/A evaporator with the compressor from my 2008 LY5. Nice and cold!
