    :bananaman got the 302 set in and bolted to the mounts. was doing this outside to keep the trany. fluid out of the shop. had the tail shaft taped up and it ran out the speedo. hole. had to put the hood on because it started to rain. that was a good thing ,
    because i was tired.
    trany. tech. tip make sure the drain plug for the converter is lined up with the hole in the flex plate the first time you bolt the trany. to the motor. myself it was the third time.:( :(
    i can put it in the shop tomorrow if it is still raining. the main thing is it is in :bananaman :clap: :bananaman :clap:
    thanks for all the help...frank...
