Finally getting to it!!! 1970 Duster 340

Didn't have much time to work on the engine this weekend. I did get a couple brackets and pieces attached to the block. I'll post more pics once things are further along. I worked on my strut rod assemblies the other weekend. I couldn't find repro washers for an A body so i soaked the originals in Evaporust and tried to sand out as many pits as I could without losing detail. I had a local plater in Lancaster replate them in zinc type III for better durability. I'm pleased with the final product. It's a big difference from what the assembly looked like before restoration.

Nice work on the strut rods.
I would ditch the bushings you have. Get yourself a nice set of Moog strut rod bushings.
Much better performance for your aplication.
