Just beacuse it's not running right now...
Doesn't mean it can't look good 
I used Mother's clay bar on the entire car, good product...
I my bay didn't have the mock-up engine in there, I'd drive it to some better scenery...
They will meet soon enough....

With what little stuff is removed, I can still tell you have more front fenderwell gap then the rear.
Maybe the hairdryer will add enough to level it out

The block is only the block, timing set/cam, and crank. The top end in there for mock up is also ~40lbs lighter than the iron counterparts, not to mention the heavy cast iron manifolds and exhaust is gonzo.
Trust me, there will be plenty of weight added to the front when it's all tied up.

I didn't realize that you had put all of it back in. Those look like the older pics you posted with the motor mocked up in the car.

Car: No F-Body right now
Re: Just beacuse it's not running right now...
Very clean!
That engine looks lovely as well, should go inside the bird nicely.
I've washed my car 3 times the past three weeks... and they're just as dirty as they were the day before I washed them. Why? They're doing construction on my street... messy SOBs! They need to hurry up., damn it!

Re: Just beacuse it's not running right now...
that engine looks like it wants to run some 93 octane with 2 turbos and an aquamist kit squirting in that ice cold denatured alcohol. Man i bet with proper tuneing you can squeeze 500 RWhp outta that

Looks good. You finally got time to work on your project?
Seeing all this makes me upset that Im not farther than I am
I need to tone down my other "hobbies" and get my car done....so I can come down there and show your car my tail lights
