O ill keep pics coming and updating, I got 3 mo to get as much done as i can before they send me to korea for a year...
Now i dont know what i wanna do... I got a 8 3/4 a-body rear end with 4:10 gears and a spool but i was looking a moser engineering and thinking about putting a 4 link but then again i just bought $600 custom made leaf spring and relocation kit and slider ewwww i hate choices.
But im a kinda debating between a moser ford 9 or there fab 8 3/4. Here my choices sell my stock a-body 8 3/4 with 489 center section with 4:10 with spool the is a fresh build and get a ford 9 from moser set up with disc brakes or sell my housing and keep my center section and buy there FAB 8 3/4 with disc brake setup..

I went with RHS heads i have mix filling about them I did a port job with 2.055 valves and i got pretty good flow numbers but for a lil more money i think trick flow alum heads would be better IMO so i could have ran a lil high CR

Go with the Honda seats, they are lighter and I feel more relaxed in them.

here a set
Just an observation from the cheap seats here ....
Silver vein is an awesome color but with those high and low spots throughout, it's not going to be very easy to keep your suspension and undercarriage clean.
