Managed to get the 340 cleaned and painted and put on the new Direct Connection valve covers.

Did you remember to sand the bottom of it so it wont leak? Lookin good, whats going on with the body? I know you were doing the quarters but I lost track after that. You were thinking about mini tubbs weren't you?

It was leaking a little before so i used a file on it before i put it back on hopefully that will fix the leak.
The body i hung the new qtrs. a couple months ago,i mini-tubbed it,moved the springs in and made a new trunk floor for it.
I have pics. if you wanna see them.

Actually i got the mini-tubs and trunk done last winter.

 

[71DusterStruck]

Man that is a lot of work... excellent so far... keep the pic flow constant!!!

 

[res1vw21]

Thats what I did, just run it without a working oil system and your problems will be solved, or is that started? I never figured that one out.

YEAH! That looks great, I'm jealous. Maybe I should go blow up my slant so I can grab a 360!

Looking great Kev! If you still have a problem with the T-housing leaking, try some stuff called "The Right Stuff". It will seal about anything.

When I was a Chevrolet guy, we used to use a furnace circulator pump gasket under the thermostat housing. They came in orange too so they weren't noticable!
They will seal up any therm housing as they're over 1/8" thick, and very inexpensive as well as reusable.
Just a tip!
