Hi all,
This is my first build, so these will be inexperienced - if not stupid - questions, I'm sure. But I'd rather ask an get experienced answers and look dumb than stumble through on my own!
In my build I'm at the point where today I installed the gas tank and tomorrow I will be installing the cockpit metal. With that in mind, here are my questions:
Engine - In order to keep making progress without a major delay, when should I plan on having the engine on hand?
Also, from the beginning I've been planning on getting a new engine...but I've also heard that doing that is a major P.I.T.A. for registration here in Massachusetts. SO...does anyone have thoughts to share about getting a used engine and then having it rebuilt instead of going new? Either way I'm planning on a carburated 302.
Other - I'm still debating power steering and power brakes. I know there's probably tons of posts about this already, but I would appreciate any fresh opinion on doing or not doing either of these. And like above, if I go with either, guidance on when to get them on hand?
Thanks everyone!
Shannon
