Mike, yeah, that's my plan. I was actually going to call you to pick your brain about some more hemi info later too.
I kind of stumbled into the unilite. A friend of mine needed a part I had so we traded. Now I can knock off a $300 or more dist off my list and get the adapter. Next thing to do is find core carbs or sell something to get new ones.
I've got to pick the body back up off the chassis a little to cut off my rear brace on the rear frame rails. The brace won't allow the floor to set over the frame properly. Once that is done, I'm going to bolt the body onto the frame and get the thing set at a ride height and get it leveled out. Then I'm going to cut off the front of my frame and graft on the one from the 38 frame. Then it'll be time for the new MII cross member. That will be a huge accomplishment. Bye bye hackery.
