There have been a few questions as to weather or not the L-98 angle plug AFR heads will work with the Hooker Super Comp side pipe headers, Yes they do.

Also the Weiand Air Strike intake is the only one I have found that you can run a double pump carb,(picture shown is a single pump 770 vac secondary), and still have a factory type vac. port.

I am also running Crane gold roller rockers under those factory valve covers.

Hope I didn't bore anyone, I am just playing with the picture thing.

Please forgive me for the rubber fuel line, not got that far yet.

Thanks for looking

Phil when you go to the photobucket page with your picture look on the left side under SHARE THIS IMAGE.
You will see a line called IMG CODE
Simply click your mouse in that line, and you will see the word "copied" appear.
then simply paste that line into your post
volia!

Stock 75 hood

Using an after market drop base air cleaner base (Noah Performance)

Plenty of clearance

Looks good, but how are you keeping the plug wires off the headers?
