Just need to adjust the valves put on the new linkage brackets when they show up and replace the air cleaner with a 2" that fits under the hood, then it's break in time yeah....

By the way.....Summit headers..(hooker super comps) hit the shock tower on the passenger side and the steering gear on the drivers, need to replace a few plug boots wit h45's and one with a 90 degree.

Clutch fan will not work with the 26" aluminum radiator so 14" electric set up as a pusher for now put in.

Will get the valves adjusted next weekend then If I can remember to make a video.

Just hoping I built the motor right so it doesn't blow up lol feels and sounds real super tight, so much so the starter almost seems like it is struggling. Stroker motor sounds so much different when trying to start...stock starter...

I picumented all steps of the build so if anyone needs pics of the internals let me know.
 
Yep, looking good. Best of luck on the break in.
 
very nice, looks good !! .... by the way, that has to be the longest coil wire ever !!!!!!!
 
The bumper jack is a nice touch..... LOL!!!

Great job! It's always a blast to know your project is getting that much closer to drivability!

Can't wait to see more pix!! Thanks for sharing!
