Minor update, stopped by the wrecking yard and got the rear brake calipers I need. Should have all the parts I need to assemble all that. Need to figure out sway bar now...

Ireland Engineering 25/22mm sway bar set is ordered (hopefully ships soon), Canton Racing oil pan that I think may fit is ordered and will be here Friday, and seat is en route from Summit Racing. Will hopefully be able to sell the stock black leather comfort seats, but will have to see what kind of condition they're in.

Got the rear sway bar mounts welded in today:
And made myself very dirty in the process.
Now I can work more on building up the rear end, getting the trailing arms, shocks, springs, etc in. Small job but big step in the grand scheme. Still need to seam seal and paint some spots though, and finish the trunk floor, but felt the sway bar was an important step.

Decided to change the engine management yet again, because I fell in love with the Holley Terminator X system. I'll be ordering a Ford 302 kit next week. I've confirmed with Holley I should be able to run individual coils like I was with the Megasquirt, but this change means I won't have to make my own harness, which was one of the biggest downfalls of my Megasquirt build, I am not a good harness maker by any stretch. Don't have the patience for it. I may also get the Holley dash and go all digital dash.
