Kurt,
Not hijacking your thread !
I am going through a similar experience but my 71 GTO support with A/C , carbon canister and the pesky Endura front grill mountings are making the transition alot more difficult.
Were you not able to use the new donor bottom support to repair your original support?

WC,
Don't give it another thought about hijacking...
I didn't want to mess with repairing the original core.
The original is still in pretty good shape. I plan on selling it.

Kurt,
She sounds and looks great. I bet , after high cam and warmed up, she sounds even better at idle.

WC,
Oh my....I was so excited to hit the key! When she came to life, the look on my face probably told the story....That never gets old!...
She does sound pretty good at idle....
Thanks for commenting and keeping up with the thread!...

Kurt,
It just keeps getting better and better. When does the rear bumper go on?

WC,
Thanks! That's my opinion 2! .... This year of LeMans/GTO has the best rear end in the business.....

Won't go on until I get her out of paint!....and I have yet to order it....won't be long now!

We are ready to go to paint! This Beauty needs a fresh coat of 1989 Chevrolet Camaro "Blu". This is our next move...then interior, wheels and tires....Then it should be real close to..."Admiration Time"...

Oh my "Babe Blu" ...How can you ask such a thing? By all means!...
