    SBC Install Checklist

    As you can see, I am not afraid to ask question... Trying to make checklist of things I must do before installing my Blueprint 383 and Tremec 5-Speed. I have limited Garage space, and have to borrow a Hoist. Would like to get Steering, Brake Lines, Lower Left and Right Firewall Panels. Was thinking... Has anyone ever cut them in half and made 2-piece panels. They are a bit of a pain it get in place. I doubt if you could fit them with the Engine installed??

    Larry, you're correct that you will never get the lower firewall panels installed with the engine in the car. Like many other items, installation sequence is important. But once they are in place there is little need to remove them.

    I should have them and Firewall back from Powder Coating Monday. I need to cut out A/C hose holes. Timing didn't allow before coating.
