Yesterday's accomplishment

Planned to put my new TA rear cover on yesterday before the NASCAR race. Well, since it was rained out I got even more done! Here's a few pic's of the progressive work.
I knew rain was a good thing!

Re: Yesterday's accomplishment

You need a 12 bolt.

Looks good, I will be getting one for my truck as well.

Re: Yesterday's accomplishment

What kind of paint did you use for the axle tube housing? Is it semi-gloss?

Re: Yesterday's accomplishment

Thanks. It's held up for awhile now.
As far as the paint, it's an offbrand primer with flat black paint. Looked better than I was expecting though. I like that cover.

Re: Yesterday's accomplishment

Thanks fellas.

Mildly built 355 with Dart heads. Comp XER284 hyd cam. It's alot more interesting since I installed the nitrous.
I don't have any good pics of the engine bay but I'll take some and post them when I get a chance.
