just the numbers scribed into the metal...The BOM for the kit (22053) doesn't list individual parts numbers that I can see

That works, but I don't think you will be able to read them with it being assembled, I'll run the kit number, or ask CStech line at March

Jon, for $4.99 you could have just used this on your old setup and had "nearly" the same outcome!

I'm gonna use it on your grille setup anyways!

Over 6 because I had to buy another alternator and power steering pump to keep the serpentine system in tact. I also swapped water pumps and ordered the nose cover for the power steering pump which doesn't come with the kit.

Barry- two of my freinds that do Mustang restorations are coming down the 13th and 14th of September to knock out the rest of the cab's bodywork. These guys do great work but their time is really limited.

Thanks!

The vent is stock; it just normally doesn't look that way. I'm sure it's to release air from the rotating gears cavitating and creating bubbles- but don't quote me.
