Re: 55 C4 Suspension/Nailhead Build

Some of the MILR Products for the Nailhead are starting to trickle in. He is a one man operation and retired after 50 years as a pattern maker for International. He makes everything right in Fort Wayne, Indiana. I feel privileged to have his stuff on my ride. So far the intake manifolds and valley cover came in. I'm waiting for him to crank out the valve covers and spark plug covers. I just have the manifolds and carburetors loosely mocked up to make sure everything fits well. Will pull them back off when I go to install the engine/transmission this weekend.

I also got my transmission back from the rebuilder. Local well known guy that rebuilds them in his garage when he gets home from work. We ended up going with a 2400 stall for this build and a TransGo shift kit. I have all my engine and transmission mounts set up. Hope to install the engine and transmission this weekend.
