Started on my engine conversion
 

With the interior finished:

It's time to replace the 2.7 and non-LSD 915:

I'll drop the engine on Saturday for pick up on Monday and shipping to Troy in CA.

Meanwhile, I picked up my rebuilt 84 915 from Bob at Autowerks yesterday. He installed a Guard LSD and he worked with Matt to change the gears so I could use the 74 output flanges and have it bolt right up to my axles. I also started breaking down the 3.6:

I want it to have more of an old school look, so it is getting 50 PMOs and this cool distributor from Jim at JB Racing:

Still have to clean up the long block and paint the valve covers to make it look nice and new. More to come!

Love that distributor! Your interior looks great, nice and clean.

Come on, Click, a man's got to get his drink on!

Pictures of the engine drop coming and a few engine bay surprises.

Nice steering wheel. What is it?

It's a Momo Mod 7.

Took the engine outside for a good cleaning:

I also replaced the oil pressure and temp senders to be compatible with my mid-year car, modified an SC engine harness, and started the disguise of my 92 3.6 to make it look more vintage:

Tomorrow the 2.7 comes out to get crated and shipped west.

The original engine is out and in a crate or shipping:

And of course the required engine bay shot:

Nice looking 3.6 there-:)

NICE what did you do to mod the engine shroud .

One of these:

Pelican Parts - Product Information: PEL-964993-B

A little Bulldog adhesion promoter and paint. That's it.

As long as the engine is out, might as well upgrade a few things:

Cleaned and painted the coil over reinforcement brackets and then started working on the engine again while the paint dried:

Made a mount for the twin coils, bolted them on, and modified the rest of the top plug wires:

Tomorrow I install the PMO carbs and start on the engine wiring. I'm not looking forward to the wiring as it appears that some PO chopped it all up. One quick question, is the red relay in the engine compartment the FP relay?

What year is the body of your car? I'm guessing '74 from looking at your other threads.
The FP relay should be in the trunk....
Feel free to PM me and I will try to answer the upcoming wiring change questions you will have. :)

Thanks, Dennis, it is a 74. The problem is the rear harness has been chopped, spliced, deleted from, added to, and just about anything else to screw it up.

Installed the PMOs today. Now I can't wait to drive it:

Sounds like a 40 year old car...
Nothing we can't figure out with some dialogue, pictures and factory prints... ;)

Man that engine looks nice with the PMO's installed.

To give you some ideas, here's some pictures of an engine harness I recently built for a single plugged PMO engine.
