    CROSSY CAPERS

    I have pulled the crossy out and already starting to think what i am going to do with it,i will strip it down and do some mods i have seen on these pages,she is a 80da engine fitted to a 6-82 xe with the 35 auto,the head looks unmarked,so not until i take it off can i see what chamber size it has ?

    I am glad i did a dummy fit of the starter and headers because it didnt fit,so out comes the grinder and took about 30 thou off a thick weld,and i was also able to adjust the starter in a bit ,other side should be a snack.

    CROSSY CAPERS

    yup i no but what has me puzzled is can the cast iron 79 xd c4 bellhousing be used on the c10 26 spline boxes ? cause the 6 cyl c4's were 24 spline right ?

    PILLOW BLOCK 357 C.I. CLEVELAND

    ok i did a fair bit today,firstly taking the old exhaust off,putting the new v8 mounting plates in,stripping the old wire loom to redirect the dizzy and temp wires,degreased the engine bay again ,and robbed many bits and pieces off the crossy to go onto the clevo,eg.. coil bracket,loom clips.ect ect,might even place the clevo in there tomorrow.
