Here is what Rick and I did today. Installed the Edelbrock RPM Airgap intake manifold and MSD Ignition. It is starting to look very sweet. Of course I am biased. So far everything Rick has spec'd for this engine package is coming together very nicely. Next are finishing touches. We still have to put the valve cover spacers, waiting for silver paint to dry, and the valve covers. Also waterpump is next. I am getting more and more excited watching this engine come closer to being finished. Never thought the process would be so intriging and exciting at the same time. For all you experts out there this is an easy task, for me, a rookie, everything seems so new and consuming, I love it.

The transmission and clutch is next. Enjoy the photos.

Hi Paul:

I am so excited with every day that passes and something new is added to the drivetrain. The engine bay I think is going to look really neat. Even better once the engine is humming along.

The car should be getting close to being finished at the painters. I will upload photos once Alan sends them to me.
