^^ thanks! I'm looking for a heads up display "HUD" if anyone knows of a good one. I would like MPH and RPM. Just hope it will show up on my windshield.

It didn't come with it, I took that off my old 112 set up but it didn't line up. It would have worked but just didn't look right and would eventually fray.

Sweet looking build. I bet that thing is going to whine like my wife when I don't fold the laundry.

^^^ Not really. I am waiting on some fuel and heater fittings but should be able to fire it up this weekend if all goes well. I did swap out my water pump for a Mezire electric one, really nice looking.

^^ I'm guessing you don't like McLeod? Clutches have so many reasons why they can go bad. Ky only concern is whether or not it can really hold 700 HP

what A/C bracket is that? And where did you get those coil covers..

I am wondering if belt slip will be an issue with the smaller tensioner.

What resivoir are you using for the intercooler and where are you mounting it? I was curious why your intercooler hoses run to the rear, are you running them forward through the fender?

Your progress looks great.

I've got my install as far as installing the new vally plate, hope to finish most of it up this week!

the bracket is from Kwik Perfomance and I am calling them today to see if they have a tensioner upgrade as I am concerned as well.

The resivoir is mounted inside the cowl area (underneath the widshield wipers) and then runs inside the fenders. The pump is up in front of the rad. It's nice and hidden that way. I'll take pics.

It is maggie one, I believe for a truck but I will get the part number for you, its nice having it tucked away and hidden.

Coil covers are from Turnkey engine supply however I sent them off to be wrinkle finished to match the SC.

That's an awesome setup. Which clutch did you end up going with the RST or RXT? I have one sitting in my room for my new engine and I'm interested to here from people how they like them.

I went with the RST hoping I don't need the RXT!

Got my pulley stuff figured out so hoping I have them by tomorrow and fire this thing up!
