Please cover the hole for the carb so you don’t get anything down into engine

 

[roadrunnerbob]

[roadrunnerbob]

[roadrunnerbob]

Is the gas line ok to put the distributor cap on without interference.?

 

[Russ69Runner]

That is a tricky area to get the fuel line through for sure. I changed over to green line and my carb is fed on the other side where pedal linkage is located. Had to move my distributor a notch to get the vacuum can too clear enough to adjust timing.

 

[roadrunnerbob]

yes the cap fits fine it’s close but it fits

 

[roadrunnerbob]

got some more done transmission lines on sifter linkage on starter on going for exhaust soon

 

[Russ69Runner]

Getting closer all the time.

I see someone else is going with HP manifolds and assume those are from your "matching" motor?
What exhaust system have you installed?
I've always preferred factory cast for easy of instillation and the other known header issues.
I would "like" headers but TTI wouldn't make me any in stainless.
The options for protecting their mild steel option were not something I wanted.
And since I've already got the HP manifolds and TTI had the system I wanted already made up prior to a feared UPS strike , I spent 80 dollars extra for headpipes.
It can be changed later.

a great friend owns an exhaust shop he’s doing the exhaust he does great work also got the back bumper on

 

[Russ69Runner]

Sweet. Nothing like getting more parts on the car.
