    Here is an updated photo for anyone that is interested. Changes include a new Monte Carlo bar, new stainless heater hoses, and the wiring has been cleaned up a bit.

    The bar came from Falcon Enterprises and was chromed at Art Brass Plating. The curve is to clear air cleaners but think it wouldonly be needed for a dual quad or tri-power setup.

    I don't have the vacuum advance hooked up right now. I'll get to that in time. I need to replace the stock non-adjustable unit for one of the aftermarket adjustable cans.

    That is an Edelbrock Performer RPM Air-Gap with the Endurashine finish.

    Patrick, when you built your engine did you do a first run in the car or on a engine stand. I can't make up my mind where to do the fire up of my engine. Larry

    I did it in the car. I don't have a stand setup for running engines.

    Although I thought it would be cool someday to build an engine stand to run engines, I've always talked myself out of it. They take up a lot of room and heck, of the 20 or so engines I've built they always seem to run just fine once I put them in the vehicle. So why, unless you're making a monument... or one of those engines you see firing up every 5 minutes at the swap meet... would you consider doing otherwise? Just curious.
