A friend of mine came by and we got the crossmember and shock towers all welded up. Check alignment without having to put the body back on by hanging a running board and fender. Working on placement of the motor mounts, tranny mounts and radiator shell support next.

Chuck I went back and read up on your progress and see where you found an engine, if your still interested in the 283 my friend has I will check on it for you . I'm sorry I missed your reply back when I made the first offer.

Chuck
Where did you get the engine motor mount set from? Seen them advertised around - sure would be a lot easier moving the engine forward or back and general setup.
I need to relocate the mounts in my sons 37 sedan, they are welded on the inside of the frame rails and one is about 1/4" higher that the other! Already have the universal trans support out..that was angled wrong.

The motor mounts and tranny crossmember came from Chassis Engineering. CE had reference points on the frame to hang the motor mounts so that it is centered between the firewall and radiator. The transmission is a World Class T5 from a Late 80's-early 90's Camaro with a S-10 tail stock.
I'm good with the 283 shown in the pics but thanks for your offer. I'm planning on swapping out the powerpack heads for a set of heads of an 8o's 305 and installing a cam to when I get around to it.
....and I apologize for leaving you guys hangin'

Hey Chuck. Why did you put the tail end from the s10 truck on the camaro trans? Was it for the shifter location? The reason I ask is I am using a 89 camaro trans with the stock tail section, and my shifter sits in the perfect spot for my build. Just curious

Yes, I swapped out the tail sections due to the shifter being too far back. By my calculations there is about a 10" difference between the Camaro tail and the S-10 Tail. I think if I was opting for bucket seats it may work but I am opting for a bench seat.
