Mounted the Aeromotive fuel regulator in a spot that would be accessible for when needed. Was a good spot because the LS style Holley kit has an electrical connection for fuel pressure right at this location.

Possible and most reasonable spot to mount the coils. This would make it appear to have a distributor. I wanted to mount on frame rail below headers but room was not my friend.

Possible hope to cut for cowl intake. Would need to build upward housing to meet the lexan windshield.

I also bought some high temp ceramic coating spray paint in attempt to do something about my completely rusted out headers. I attempted to sand them out but got frustrated and conceded to acknowledge that I will just need to buy new ones. I had already bought the paint and thought, what the hell and see how they would turn out. I was pleasantly surprised at what they turned out to look like with one coat. Not sure how long if at all coating will last but damn sure happy with results.

I could see imperfections a little better with the lighter color. The front of the towers were wavy. Again I’d like to make it look clean. Seemed that every YouTube video watched kept emphasizing shock towers are the first thing that people tend to look at. So I went with another coat of bondo to try and smooth the look out.they look better but No perfect.

Second welding attempt.. spot welds were not the best. Think metal may be too thin for setting on the harbor freight special that I bought.
