Everything that I am doing and posting is nothing special or spectacular, just a way of tracking my progress. This will allow me to see where I started from. :roll:

Looks good! That’s a lot more effort than I’m willing to go through lol. I love threads like this even if it’s just mundane fixing stuff, not all build threads have to be outrageous!

Nice work! We had 5. I pressed the ‘Easy Button’ and covered them with surplus antennae.

Anyone put a sunroof in instead of fixing the holes? Any reason not to?

I'm with you. It is cool to read the threads where guys are doing full rebuilds, but I am just going to do small stuff and have a daily driver. I am also monitoring your cam thread. I pretty much decided I am going with an LS3 cam.

Hey there is nothing wrong with that. I use the easy button all the time.

Fitzee's Fabrication is who taught me through his youtube channel. I forgot to mention him in the beginning. It is too bad I didn't find out about him before my 1990 LS1 truck swap and 1968 Chevelle. He has some good info.

I am not a sunroof fan. And I imagine it would be lots of work.
