As for myself, I have the 400 back together, sitting on a stand. Now featuring a fresh hone job,Total seal gapless rings and Clevite 77HP bearings plus windage tray and new oil pan. Ran great before but smoked. Hope this works. Also have a Centerforce DF clutch to put in with the T-5, instead of the Autozone Rhino clutch I've had in it.
Also finishing up installing a Moser 9" I recently got. Waiting for parts to hook up e-brakes and a brake hard line kit. Looks like I get to drop the engine/tranny in a couple weeks by myself....AGAIN!!
Next - SFC's I've had lying around for 2 years.
I need a welder!
Anyone else "chompin' at the bit" to get your f-bod back on the road??
EDIT: The weather was so nice today, and I felt like incoherantly babbling......

Putting my 350 together one of the nights this week. Rushing because GLD opened last weekend and a bunch of ricers that I know are going this weekend. Car would be running already, but blew 350 three weeks ago because kid borrowed me 305HO heads that had "LT1" springs on them that were actually worn out stockers. Needless to say, got massive valve float, valve broke, went through piston and head. Oh well, these 462s should make more power than the 416s I had.
Just need my SFC welded in and the suspension upgrade will be done, this summer I plan on getting my 350 stroked for next winter swap

Getting ready to blow in the door jambs, fix the run on the passengers door around the door handle, paint the engine bay, paint the 91-92 gfx, install them and install the new 383 and 6 speed.
Some where in there run new fuel lines and rear mount battery set-up and finally the 92 HD corvette brakes....

I thought this thread had died! Guess it's my job to revive it.
Glad to hear I'm not alone. I'm usually driving my Camaro by now, just doing too much at once plus my real job = need more time for wrenching.
At least I figured out how to hook up E-brake cables to 11" Ford drums. 9" is installed with Lakewood control arms, just need to bleed the brakes!
Oh - and INSTALL THE ENGINE AND TRANS.......
