went to kamloops to pick up the motor
Image




had a few hours over the week to work on the car.

pull off the auto tranny and test fit the r154
Image

started to test if it and make the brackets
Image

modding the tunnel a bit to clear the tranny
Image

5+ hours later brackets made and last test fit
Image

as low in and as far back as i could
