1050 dominator, crank trigger and a distributer going on it. I will get the heads on it tommorrow. Then with any luck T&D will be quicker then the 4 weeks they said for the rocker arms. Funny that they don't keep 1.7 rockers in stock . I wish I could have got a piture of the lobes.

I will be making the 2" primary headers next week.

Looks awesome, but I fear all that plumbing on the intake won't fit. Before I saw it, I was going to say you should try and get the intake flange milled down about 1/2 way to cut off about what appears to be 1/2-3/4in of aluminum. Would help with clearance for the TB.

He said he's running a carb so there's not gonna be a TB lol. Looks like hes going to have to run a cowl hood either way so I wouldnt be worried about milling the intake down unless you still can't fit the carb under a cowl.

Ah, didn't notice the Carb bit. Well, I haven't seen any side by sides, but I think a TB is shorter. So no need to mill it down then. Should rock quite well either way

Looks good!


Where did you get the pan? Better yet a Parts Number(#91089?) would be great!

I have a cowl hood. The cowl area of the car is cut out. I may need to sell the bolt on hood and buy a pin on one that goes to the windshield.

The pistons were part of the $6000 short block.
