Here's the new dash. I really like the mid year dashes so I tried to get that look here. I started with a set of 66 dash pads and used them for a base and made this:



It didn't turn out how I had planned but the roll cage kind of hampered my design ideas. I also eliminated some un-needed wiring in the harness.
This was the engine last year before I added the intercooler.



If you notice, you can see the hydra boost I added as well.


Here were some problems we ran into at Indy last year. The billet gear housing cover wasn't machined deep enough for the cam gear retainer. The cam gear retainer was holding out the front cover and causing an oil leak. What a PITA!



Here's a couple of blurry pics of the intercooler and piping.



Here's me sitting in it at Indy.
