Chevelle Engine & Tranny
Engine Before Rebuild and Before Repaint, Looks kinda Bland doesn't it?
My totally different exhaust manifolds, one is original have no clue on the other one.
My new Hooker Super Comps, 2" primarys, 3.5" collectors; got to replace those manifolds.

Oil Pan, Hamonic Balancer, Water Pump, & Drive Shaft
Heads Painted
Block and Crank
Got it together now I put on the brackets and pulleys for a mock-up to see the alignment for the belts, everything looked good. I need to paint the AC brackets and Clean up the pump, Also Ive got a new Alternator which is not in the pics, the old one is. Im also waiting on a Stainless External bolt kit, Thats why theres no bolts or gaskets on the intake, and im also going to go with the stainless on the brackets and pulleys. In the pics I need to paint the Lower Power steering bracket and get a AC belt. We also rebuilt the P/S pump.
I got the pulleys and brackets from my bro, Scottieo, Thanks!!!
Well Got the Stainless bolt kit on it, it looks kinda bald without those stupid T-handles on it. Can't wait to hear it run. I had to take All the brackets off to get it out the door cause it was too wide.
Tranny Rebuild
When we got the car we decided to rebuild the transmission due to a couple of things, one was the fact that its a 35 year old car and who knows if its been rebuilt. Two is that the people who had it before us painted it black. Three is that we noticed that some water was in there and thats not very good at all.
Well it turned out that it was full of water and a couple of seals were broken(See Pics). Its a good thing that we did rebuild it.
Finished Tranny
