Not to change the subject but, what about getting exhaust out around everything. Once we get the transmission figured out the exhaust system needs to be snaked through. Anyone at that point yet?
The last post was 2012, so yeah, I did that a while ago. In my case I hand built my own exhaust from the manifolds, really wasn't that bad. The only problem I had was the drivers side manifold was really close to the steering box and I had to modify it to clear. I had planned to make headers but never ended up doing it. Drove the car 13k miles and then sold it 2 years ago.
