Same to you.

WOW that looks great. I love the pulley set up on the front, where did you get that setup? What are the details on her and who built the motor?

It is now 8:30 am here so you and Len will be getting up in about 6 hours.

Iceman...cool test stand....how did that wood framing hold up? it looks like it is held to the engine by weight and the strapping connection to the lower motor mount hole? is that all there is?

I didn't build it, that is a pic from the engine builder Engine Factory. The pully system is a Marsh, and again the engine builder supplied it.

Dammit Len, you had to go and get your hood painted!

Thanks a lot!

I kinda thought us aftermarket L-88 hood guys had an unspoken agreement that we would all keep our ugly gray gelcoat hoods gray.

The car is looking very nice.

How do you like the 03 seats? I am thinking of getting 84-88 standard seats because I know they will fit, but I if I have more options, I am open.
