Re: Engine pics

Nice setup. One thing I've found out the hard way is that the headers being new tend to get overheated when the engine is getting broke in. You might look at using some exhaust manifolds with some pipe to get it broke in first.

Re: Engine pics

What intake are you using? What size carb spacer plate are you using? What size carb 500 or 600? I just spotted in my Jegs catalog that they advertise the 600cfm manual choke for $219+tax. I'm gonna jump on this deal this weekend. I was wishing I could take this three day weekend and stab my crate engine, but only if I can tie up some lose ends. If not hopefully buy the end of this month.
