Swap is done. Not that it was brain surgery or anything. Took me forever to get the engine out of the 78 with the tranny and to pull the whole front end. Took me another day just about to get it up into the 77 and all secured. While I was at it I changed the motor mounts and steering rack bushings. Man oh man the mounts are a pain in the arse. Doing all this by myself is taking alot out of me. I am so a newbe at this sort of stuff. My arms are all black and blue and I look so haggerd. But it is coming along. I have the radiator, altinator, and starter to swap next along with the master and slave clutch cylinder. I'm going to swap rear ends the same way too. A arms with diff, half shafts and suspension all in one go.
I'll keep you all posted to see if it is all possible to finish before next Wed. morning.
