It must feel good to be making some progress on the car now!


Oh absolutely...but I really can't get going until the 'bu is done...I'm just tinkering...

What I'm looking forward to is being at the stage that Bob is at currently; paint is done, just finishing up sub-assemblies, and EVERYTHING that is going back in the car is either new or refurbished... He's got to be having a blast right now...I know I would...

Ray, if you want those manifolds to look great get them media blasted and then coat them with Resomotive Lab's (makers of POR-15) Factory Manifold Gray high temp coating. I've done 2 sets of manifolds and 1 set of headers and the stuff just will not burn off. The finish looks just like gray cast iron, too. It's the best high heat coating I have found so far.
