Funny about your Dad and the BBC. I used to put SBC engines in my Datsun trucks without any frame or suspension upgrades; they didn't last long!

Really enjoy watching your progress; that is gonna be a beautiful rig!
Thanks buddy!
That is the exact reason those T handle hold downs drive me nuts. I am a bit OCD. Post the pics, I gave up on the pics being right side up. Lol, you probably noticed.

The Datsun/sbc combo sounds like fun!
