Above after "thats all for today" I meant to type " Things To do Still", we didn't get all those things done yet. I was too late to modify the post!

Now what's going on? Where did those pictures come from and what's altered on them? Did I leave the door unlocked?

It should be apparent that all that was done to the originals was to put detail in the shadows.

The bottom photo is this one with out the finned block off plate. I guess Zenon didn't expose it right and Freud photo shoped it or something.

"headers" came back from the welder

Here is Rich marking where he wants the sensors for exhaust gas temp





Then we drilled the holes and the "headers" will be headed out to get jet hot coated black

Here are some pics









We reattached the primer pump and ran the fuel lines for the priming system.

Rich had attached the last fuel line for the main injectors

Rich also made the valve cover gasket

We made the spark plug wires the right length and put them on

Pretty much getting to doing some minor wiring before we are ready to fire the engine

Couple pics

Stopped by to see Rich tonight. We won't be working on the car this weekend. The hood is at the metal worker having a "bulge" added to clear the valve cover. The headers are still at the coating shop. Rich hooked up the throttle this week. Just thought I would post a quick update.
