I just noticed, I can see you are going to run into the same problem I did when I put the fuel log on my carb also. You are going to need to call Summit and order a 90 degree outlet for your heater hose. It just sucks when stuff like this happens.

Yep, it all looks very nice. (however, there is not enough wrap on the power steering pulley)

Terrific job! Love the pulley setup too.

WARNING! top picture shows potential for major oil leak on the drivers' side. Is there a valve cover for that head too?
