Hi all, I haven't posted in awhile, thought I'd bring you up to date on my Mav. I've got my radiator and fan set into the lower mounts, upper mounts need to be fabbed yet. Got my Vintage Air Gen II Supercooler evap unit installed, waiting on the condenser to arrive. Cut my dash to install the upper A/C bullseyes (will be filling in the ashtray and heater panels). Got the controller mounted. Bought an old Z-28 console to play with and decided it's a go, works great with the B&M black diamond shifter (sans housing). Will fab some aluminum plates for the shifter and A/C control panel. Bought a set of BBK #1569 351W fox-body swap headers just by the pix, hoping that they'd be "close". Well, turns out they (two) bolt up OK without hitting anything! Will be cutting the port flanges off this weekend to install the pipes to LS-1 port flanges... Lot's of new pix in my gallery! Russ
Nice job! That console looks really good in there. With Granada ones so hard to find this a great alternative for us junkyard scavangers to add to our lists!
Thanks! New pix in my gallery... Hated to, but ended up cutting a hole in the hood as the carb would never clear as-is. I'm open to suggestions on scoops, anyone got a pic of a T-Bolt teardrop on a Mav hood? Since I'm using a Vintage Air system, I decided to delete the heater control panel and ashtray, filling in the ashtray with a pair of 2 1/2" A/C vents. Mounting that console has been a time-consuming, head-scratching, $#&%^#'ing ordeal. Trying to get it all together while being able to remove pieces of it without disassembling the whole interior...hmmm. Russ
