Default ATTN: FBird TA

Hey was just wondering if you've made anymore progress on your 81 TA LS1/T56 conversion, I've been checking out your website regularly <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> I'm interested to know what you'll be doing for wiring, headers, and driveshaft?

I haven't had much time to work on the swap lately. I've made some minor progress with notching the subframe. It is coming up on winter here in Kentucky and I need to get my shop building insulated and heated, that's been my priority. I guess next time I get relocated from a warm climate to a cold one I'll remember to look for a place with a heated garage. I have the week of Thanksgiving scheduled for vacation. I hope to have all my winter preparation tasks done by then so I can concentrate on the project. Sorry for the lack of updates.
