Lookin' more and more like a car everyday.

So shall we assume that you have an entire posse of "Hemi-Installation-Help" coming over...?
:banana: :yesnod: :banana: :yesnod: :banana:
You should consider borrowing a video camera and a tripod if you don't have one...later on you'll be glad you did... Same for the initial fire-up... My buddy videotaped the initial fire-up of his Camaro last summer. I laugh like hell every time that I watch it. I had gotten the timing damn near dead-on (pure dumb luck) so as soon as we hit the switch it lit the afterburners (open headers...) and I just about jumped out of my skin. All on tape... Obviously, I wasn't expecting it to be so easy or quick - and I nearly became a Wal-Mart Greeter...

I made a test lift today and discovered that the rear tires will need to be blocked up to make room. I need a little more room where the frame bends down rear the fire wall. Now if the rain stays away its a go!

Hit bottom And slipped in torsion bars and tranny mount. At this point the bumper mounts were to weak to lift in off the cart so a series of jacks and stands were used to get room to remove the cart.
