You're doing great Jonathan! Keep it up. I like looking at your "progress pics". You should consolidate them all into one thread.

keep up the good work ! remember, it comes apart a lot easier than going back together usually. Ya I agree with Rick, don't use those cider blocks,they blow apart. Find some good wood blocks say at a construction site they will usually give them to you.

Jonathon, every mistake you make will make you a better person & mechanic in the future. I remember some of the mistakes I made w/my 1st. car [ 55 chevy 2dr sedan]when I was 15 yrs. old, to this day, like trying to take apart the front u-joint w/ the shaft still in the car to get d/shaft out, then saw the bolts at the back of shaft!!!! Oh this is how it comes out!!! Pulled 6 cyl. & built a wild SBC back in 66 that would rule east Toronto for one summer, Car shook it's self to death with Duntov Cam [365hp. vette solid lifter] tri power, & some mean heads++ Boy that just brought back some memory's of beating a yellow 62 Impala 327 4 gear at Oconner & Sunrise just west of Vic. Park AH the good ol days Sniff sniff, I need a Kleenex
