Right now i have a richmond gear super t10 with higher gears 1 ,2,3rd,
4th is 1 to 1.I also bought a new center force duel friction clutch and pressure plate,and a aluminum flywheel to go with it.I am thinking on a high performance automatic over drive,we will see later on.
here are a couple pics of the old engine.

I think it looks very nice and with a neat wire install with some of those alongside the valve cover looms would IMO add a nice final touch.
I was surprised to see you using a mechanical fuel pump but being as you have already been running a blower your experience with one must have been good
Looking forward to hearing how she runs

Great looking setup, should be a lot of fun.
That being said, why not go with a 6-71? I understand guys running mini blowers to keep things covered up, but since you're already out of the hood....
You can spin a big blower a lot slower making less heat making way more power. And the cost is not all that much more....just curious

The engine in it was tired and i wanted a little more hp
,and i wanted to do it right this time and make it really look good,all polished.after all mechanical stuff is done i will start on interior and body.After me and the wife watch Barret Jackson on tv,she said i could fix the car up the way i wanted I LOVE MY WIFE.She sees the car as and investment now,not just blowing money on it.

I'll have to bring up the investment scheme if I ever get into the waste of money Corvette discussion again.
