Adam,
I just got my '79 running again last night!!! Woo-hoo! After 4 hours at the alignment shop (rusted trailing arm bushing bolt), I took her to the exhaust shop. I'm picking her up from there today, and after a tune up from my local speed shop, I'll be breaking her in all weekend. I put a GMPP stock replacement 350 4-bolt main engine with a Holley Street Dominator aluminum intake, CompCams XE268H camshaft, Dynomax Cerama-coated headers, and an Edelbrock carb. It's taken me 4 months to get back to running condition, but it was worth every minute. I have a few pictures, part numbers, tips, etc. So if you need any help just let me know.
