Hope it fits under the Stinger. My Stinger added about 1" over the stock 80 hood.
Love the Led Zep poster too.

I'm praying it does. If not maybe it will be close enough to where I can get a short cleaner

I used a Edelbrock mechanical fuel pump. But I can't remember which flywheel or balancer. I called blueprint and talked to them and they told me what year and which vehicle I needed to order them for. for example I think they told me 1987 El Camino for the flywheel.

Here's a picture of what mine looks like. The picture was taking just after installing it. No new pictures but I did a lot of clean up after this picture was taken.
