    Sounds good to me. If I remember correctly all of the early 265's had stagger mounted valve covers and if I also remember correctly the best stock heads for those valve covers were '57 Fuelie heads.

    It has been awhile since I posted any progress but it finally is spring in Ohio and I am able to work on the car again.
    Last week I got the model A frame disasembled and started to put it back together. I welded in a new front crossmember and I tacked the rear crossmember 3 inches higher and 5 inches further back. I still need to fabe some gussets for the kickup.

    Since it is warm outside now, I should be able to post some progress pics of some sort at least once a week. Also since this is my first build if anyone has any tips or notices me doing something wrong or unsafe throughout my build please let me know.
