    1968 Joe's build thread

    Alright, I think I'm gonna do it. It'll take me a few weeks to get all my parts together. I have them at 3 different locations. I'm going to go through all of them and determine which I'll re-use and which I'll replace. Maybe I'll bolt the heads, valve covers, and oil pan on the shortblock and...

    1. I am definitely planning on a roller cam. 2. I have the Ron Morris engine mounts. That's also what I used before and set the engine back as far as I could. Already have a driveshaft that should work. If not, we can address that. 3. I already have headers that I used before. They fit...

    Happy belated, Tim! Sorry I missed it. Did you get a new CS for your birthday?

    To me, it comes down to who you're rebuilding the car for. Are you doing it for you to enjoy or for others to enjoy? If you're doing it for you to enjoy, build it the way you want it (even if the way you want it is the way it came from the factory). :wink:
