Engine and Transmission

Installed the two four barrel carburetors Ordered the linkage to set the transmission tv pressure. Will hook it up to the rear carburetor. Also ordered headers to fit the sub frame and should be a nice tight fit. Next mate the 700R4 transmission to engine and tune carburetors.
