I wanted to post some photos of my engine. I still don't have a car to add this to yet but I keep saving. Maybe someday this thing will run.

And another.

I modified the March alternator bracket to mount the alternator lower. Do you think it will fit okay this way?

Patrick, I don't think that motor is going to work so I'll send you money for the freight and you can send it right over.:)

Patrick, you might have a problem with it hitting the frame rail on the pass side, we position the alternator up high. Your engine looks great, is it going in a FIA car?

It will go into a 427 car with either a 3550-II or TKO-II.

We are about to start on a deluxe pallet kit that is going to a customer in Vancouver Wa , you might want to get with him and take a look.

Beautiful engine! I agree with Alan's comments on the alternator. It sure looks like it'll hit the rail. What a beauty!

Patrick,

Come to the Red Hook Brewery today (Saturday) at noon for the 3rd Annual NWCC Bull Session. Weather permitting, I'll have my car there and you can check if there'll be enough clearance.

Patrick,
Engine looks great! what are the details?
I'm the new owner Alan referred to down in Vancouver. I hope to have the car in early March.
I'm building a 390 FE for the car.
