Very nice. Let's see what do I like? The radiator? The radiator hoses? The carb heat shield? Yep the engine too. Nice work. :yesnod:

The geardrive is really not that noisy,just makes that normal "gear" sound.
The fan setup is a push/pull setup because the two 16" wont fit side by side.One fan is constantly on and one is manually operated.
I`m really satified with the performance of the CSI pump.Many people doesnt like electric waterpumps,but i like the fact that they keep a steady flow of coolant under any engine speed :cheers:

Nice! Was going to get one of those water outlets/necks if i wasn't go efi, you can run a lower rated cap there to 'burp' the system then run a higher rated cap at the rad just in case you really boil over you will have 2 outlets for pressure.

It looks really beautiful! What sort of amperage does that electric pump pull, and what size alternator are you running? :thumbs:

I think I see a mechanical fuel pump and I like that idea for fuel. Unless you find yurself getting leaned out during hard acceleration I don't see the need for electric. But I don't see a regulator and would think you could use one if running a hi po pump. Holley says the big motors running bigger carbs take more pressure than a little sb (only 5-6 psi).
