Too good of a project to be off of page one!
Bubba, could you post pictures of the distributer installation? I see the pieces and the wires but can't picture how the distributer is mounted.
Thanks, Roy

That is a LARGE header, and oil cooler.
Did you do anything to the internals of the engine Joe or is it stock? That thing could use some wild cams.

I try to use 3" pipe on all of my cars as room permits cant always get it in there.
crzyone I want to get CHRFAB,s cams if money is OK.
By the way here is how far I am on the exhaust so far.
excuse the smoke I just finished welding some pieces and the shop is only 10X10 not very big

No way. I'm sure it requires 16" wheels minimum, and I wouldn't be surprised if it required 17".
