Got the clutch linkage hooked up and partially bled, not a fan of the SST hydraulic line/bleeder setup but ill get it worked out.

Interior is 100% back together and looks good, just need to fill transmission up, finish bleeding clutch hydraulics and wire in the reverse light pigtail.

Got the hydraulics bled, reverse lights and starter signal wired and took her for the first drive.

Took it on 2 short drives but so far everything is good.

I was having high idle issues so i left the bubble off but everything else went good.

Ended up taking it to work after lunch and putting another 10 miles on it, nice and smooth through 4th up to 50, speedo is dead on.

Will put it back up in the air this weekend and do a bolt check.

I feel like i dragged it out a bit, I'm really happy with how smooth it drives.

I'll be copying some parts for my 71 Challenger build since that car is also getting the TKX.

Any update?

Thanks,
Craig
I have about 300 miles on this swap and the only "issue" I've had is going from park to reverse when it's cold it will scratch sometimes.

Other then that, it's been a great addition to this car and i would reccomend it.
