Get rid of the red wiring by the firewall, somehow though

Very nice! Reminds me of the 327 in my 1967.
You asked earlier today about a heater core shut-off valve and I posted a pic of my 1974. Here is that valve on my 1967 327/300. Yes, I used a 327/350 aluminum intake but you get the point I am sure.

Add me to the list of those who like the orange valve covers. I like the manifold too!
Nice job (oh and as suggested before try to tuck that red wire away
).
