At least I got the link to work. I sure someone will flame me for not using the search button or some crap but I did take a while to try and figure it out so this is the best I can do for now. Sorry.

Yes, the links are working. Glad you were able to get the PHS and clarify what it came with. A few cars the PHS documents are missing. Most importantly, glad to see you pulled the Chebby motor. Like an artificial heart, it can only do so much good.
No flaming...we may have made some random non specific reference in the mostly defunct but lately revived Pet Peeves thread.

I bought a running 75 model 400 with 6x heads mated to a 350 turbo last weekend. I plan on adding PS and disc brakes cleaning up under the hood then put the 400 in and get it moving. I want to drive and enjoy it while I work on the body. Don't want it perfect just decent and drive the heck out of it!

Well, you have some matching second gen script emblems to go with your second gen engine.

Yep. The old script emblems don't look too out of place. Anybody want to chime In on how bad this thing would be to drive with the manual steering? I've been looking at the 3rd Gen iroc conversion but would like opinions on the manual first. Thanks.

You will hardly notice the manual steering. Now manual brakes, those you will notice.

If you're going to change the car from the original configuration you're going to want/need power steering and power brakes. I would say that going back to the Windward Blue #87 special order paint would be an excellent choice in colors. Windward Blue gets a ton of attention and is a great color on a Firebird. I am a bit biased in my opinion lol
My manual steering isn't hard or difficult- even when sitting still.
I am putting a booster on the manual disc brakes though.

I remember auto reviews referring to it as "steering numbness".
