New/old motor for the duster

After going through the transmission last month I finally got to the time to go through the valve body... A couple of weeks ago I talked to a member and he gave me a few tricks for improving shifts so I applied that knowledge...
I got a Mr gasket ratchet shifter at the swap meet for 40 bucks that had a corny piston shift knob and I just got a basic one. A friend of the swap meet gave me the shift cable and I grabbed the cable bracket that goes on to the transmission a while back to go... I've done this before where I straightened out the shift arm on the transmission and just drilled a hole closer to the fulcrum point that match the throw of the shifter.. of course I make all my adjustments on the bench so when I put it in the car I just have to attach it...
Obviously tomorrow I'm going to start with already clean up of everything..
