I finaly fired up the engine in the vega today. After letting the cam break in I did a little fine tuning.
It runs real good no leaks and sounds healthy too.Now I need to have a drive shaft made.

Let me know how the heim trailing arms feel. I'm using the same thing except with the torque arm. I've got high hopes. Thanks Robert.

I Bought a Oil relocator so my headers don't get oil on em when I change the oil. I didn't buy it as a kit the pieces were purchased separately
That way I got what I wanted.

I started to remove the undercoating so I can clean and paint.I also have a little more welding to do on the frame connectors.
Its a lot easier working underneath with the car up so high.The driveshaft is only a mockup for the one Im having made.
The trans and driveshaft will be removed for work being done.Pics of the cleaned area to follow.
