    Welcome to CHR Geoff! You've found a nice place to hang your wrench. There are some traditionalist here, but only a few. Most are well rounded (some even plump ) and diversified and all very helpful.
    Don't forget to post pics of your build, we old buggers like pictures more than words.

    Thanks Bob, I don't mind traditionalist as long as they have an open mind. I more rounded than a few years ago and need to do something about that.

    I uploaded some pics to the gallery and posted some above but the flash page said they need to be moderator approved. I'll try again.

    Here's the arrival pics and the engine without the stack induction.

    Stewart Transportation does great work






    The induction system will look like the one below with taller stacks. The guy who produces these lives about 4 miles from me.

    Update

     



    Sorry for not updating more often and I'm really sorry that it's been so long since progress was made. Finally the schedule is allowing some hot rod time.

    Minor progress was made over the last few days. Most everything will come back apart but I did get some parts fitted and ready for PCing. I was hoping to put pressure in the fuel lines this weekend but a white water rafting trip came up.

    I'll be pulling the front suspension apart next weekend for some repairs and upgrades.
