Glad to see your project is moving along again. Been following this one for a long time. Nice truck and that engine stand is amazing!

Here is the engine sitting approximately where I want it. Trans is only 1/2" from tunnel in a few spots!

I am fighting the turbo drain tube, its right where I want the mount....

Tranny was a remain and it looks really great inside but I'm not a trans expert. I'll try to get more closeups for you guys. I don't think i need to touch it - drove well in the old crusty dodge. Anyone able to decipher a date code from it?
