this is my swap so far. Im getting ready to start the DIY port polish soon, hopefully tomorrow. none of this is really in an order and im sorry for that. Just wanted to get something up so people could see it. If you have any questions just ask. Im still figuring out this thread stuff. maybe once all the pictures are taken and swap is done Ill make a more better thread. Just figured some people would like to see this specially FNGs like me. Ill get more pictures as I get further along.

Yea just need a few other things mainly a yoke for my 4l80 I need a bolt counter bore. Other than that I'm pretty good. The part thats gonna take the longest is finishing the port and polish on my heads.
So I got a little done this weekend. Pulled old 350 tbi out, degreased the engine bay and painted it.

Might want to check your motor mount plates. Looks like you have them swapped. The pointed end/clamshell mounting faces forward.
