I didn’t try a different bellhousing. Alignment is always good to check. Going to have to run a SFI Bellhousing for the track later
Great progress Dalen. Looking forward to Ponoka more and more all the time.

I will make it there this coming event in the C4!! I got a few days off over the Holidays, hope to have it back together before the new yearGreat progress Dalen. Looking forward to Ponoka more and more all the time.
Wow. Can't wait to hear it running. Don't let Santa help you Dalen. His fingers are way too pudgy for mechanical work. Spend way too much time crawling around on the floor looking for nuts and bolts.
Really nice job. Way back in the day when putting a scatter shield on my Chevelle, I had the engine side and transmission side surfaces machines, checked the alignment, and it was off as well. It took quite a while to find offset dowel pins, and a lot of taking the housing off and on and adjusting the pins to get everything centered.

I guess it’s time to learn how to build a differential!
3.55 Gears
Trac Lock positraction
Master Rebuild kit
Polyurethane bushings for the rear suspension
Looking forward to doing the rebuild, and using 4th gear on the 1/4 mile ( Trapped 128 mph in the 1/4 in 3 rd gear with the 3.07’s )

Found some bent parts on the suspension 
No tire ware at all,must have one heck of a wheel alignment on it.......
Noticed before that the drivers side 1/2 shaft was closer to the body than the passenger side, and the car looked lower on the one side.

The good side, you can see the lower “dog bone” is straight
Well I hope new "dog bones" are in the budget. Always fun finding parts that you didn't now needed replacing! 
On the plus side you know it will be perfect when done.

Found it in Calgary at Western Corvette
You can see how much it was bent

You must have had one heck of an alignment to compensate for that.......... Haha.

I have the ECU just running the engine, I wired the existing C4 harness into it to use the relays for fuel pump, fans, etc. The dash still runs off the factory harness using all the original C4 sensors for oil temp, oil pressure, water temp. The tach is wired into the ECU of 5.3L LS using the original wire off the C4 distributor, with a resistor to boost the signal off the ECU. The speedometer runs on electric signal off the TKO 600 transmission, needed a Dakota Digital box to convert it so the C4 dash would recognize it.
Cool, "needed a Dakota Digital box to convert it so the C4 dash would recognize it " answers my next question. Awesome job, the sensor thing just make perfect sense, esp retapping the water temp and putting up a tree for oil functions. Beautiful garage by the way lol!
