Message: Not yet, she's still amassing a mountain of parts. It should be one nice swap when it's all said and done that's for sure.

Message: It took me this long to accumulate all the parts. There are so many little things to get as well, gaskets, pumps, hoses, bolt kits, they all add up. Right now, I am just starting the assembly stage, it's upside down and waiting for an ARP stud kit so I can install the windage tray. Then, cam, double roller timing chain, water pump and M1. The heads have comp cams 1.6 aluminum roller rockers and springs.
I'm not doing the swap til I get a tranny- I have found a guy only a couple of hours away who deals strictly in dakota parts who can get me one.
