Default Pic of dash pad modified for AC/Heat control

I'm gonna recover the whole dash pad w/ material from SCAT ProCar seats Material that match my seats. Wanted something different & gonna make a recess pod & weld it to the dash pad frame so it will look recess & no one will notice it right away.

I got Unisteer manual rack & steering kit & Morose oil pan that I'm gonna post on here to sell , they've been on the car but never used on the road & my fiance hands r bothering her so that's why I bought the power rack & the Morose oil pan didn't work so I had to get Holley 302-1 , I'll post pics later.

Default pics of Flaming River Power rack & Holley 302-1 oil pan

Here's a shot & it all clears , I one pressure line for the rack , I moved it temporary , but I'm gonna make new line so it doesn't hang low like in pic u see & it Hite between oil pan & rack mount. The rack ctadle hangs lower then the subframe crossmamber but @least the oil pan doesn't.But overall I'm very pleased , now it's time 2 sell the other oil pan & rack & buy the 168 lbs injector & the new 7.5 Holley screen & buy the BTR springs kit , then I can start her up. Tranny should b done next mth.
