  1. my computer skills are constantly improving but cameras, and transferring photos to computers still seem to make me crazy...

    does anyone have a clear picture of the lower drivers side block area and the oil filter and oil temperature sensor location on a sbc engine?

    IM looking for a clear picture of the area where the temp sensor normally screws into the block in the port above the oil filter flange, angles not as important as clearly showing the location

     

    I have a couple bare blocks in the garage, let me know if you want other pictures.

  2. I'll work on the pantera pictures, nice car, but not show quality, this one is a driver. Interesting car though.

     

    Red z is still sitting, so is the '55, although the motor, trans and trans crossmember are now in the '55. Rad showed up the other day for '55, need to install a wiring harness in '55, not looking forward to that.

     

    Jeep is hauling A$$ as usual but the snow and lack of doors on the jeep keep it from being driven. I'm really pleased with the heads so far on that motor.

     

    The z is the next thing on my list, after roundy round racing that is.

     

    Good to hear the jeep motor is holding up! My machine shop said they barely touched up the guides on a couple valves but most of them were in spec and the valves looked fine. I guess these heads are kind of a crap shoot.

  3. I didn't realize that Jeeps would launch into the air when a pipe punctures the radiator. Kinda scary and you would think Jeep would do something about that problem.

     

    Haha, that's exactly what I thought! I'm also amazed how Indian Jeeps seem to be able to spontaneously jump over obstacles. No need for a rock crawler, just jump up!

    Just to double check, you have the motor mounts that look like this, correct?

     

    It's been a couple years since I did the actual motor swap in my ZX, but the major issue I remember running into was the trans running into the tunnel, but I'm using a 700r4, not a T5. The T5 is (from what I remember) smaller. Double check you're not contacting anywhere on the bellhousing, frame rail, etc maybe?
