Default No mock-up this time.

Got a lot of work done recently. Clutch, flywheel, bellhousing and tranny all done. Need to adjust the ball stud yet. Water pump, pulley's intake and carb all finished today. :hurray: Tomorrow I want to prime the engine to see if oil is flowing in the appropriate areas. :D








this one was taken before the intake was bolted on.

That look real sweet :yesnod:
Wish I had the knowledge and motivation to get that much work done, my beauty needs it. But hey, that's why I'm here, to get knowledge and get inspired.

Beautiful engine! :cheers:

I forgot about that photo Jay. Been a long time. I made some money selling some of the parts too. Tranny for $200, exhaust manifolds went for $180 on Ebay. Still have the peanut port heads, probably have to take them to the junk yard.
