That does look good in there, you are going to love it when you finish it.
Made a little progress, haven't had the chance to post up yet, but here ya go... I removed the old wiring harness for now until I figure out what needs to be removed and what needs to stay. I also pulled the engine back out to change the oil pan gasket and bolt on the pickup tube and windage tray. Also had to modify the TransDapt Adapter bolts so that they would tighten all the way and not hit the block itself. After that it was time to drop the engine back in and figure out this wiring mess...
Pulled the pan off, took a quick look at the bottom end... looks pretty good

A bunch of sludge in the pan, some leaves, and a Styrofoam packing peanut...

All cleaned up (After a bunch of degreaser and brake clean)

Installed the S&P Oil Pressure Sending Unit Adapter, OEM Adapter, and Sending Unit. I forgot to get a pic of the sending unit before I bolted the intake down, but you get the idea.

The owner wants to use the stock Battery Box and just use a cold air intake, so I'm using the OEM Battery Cables. Here is the Cable routed under the TB to the Alternator

Still have to finish up the fuel pump, drill the trans crossmember, Connect the Trans Lines, Y-Pipe, and The Solder the Stock Harness into the Nelson Harness.
