Couple of Progress Pics of the Valiant
Made a li'l progress.....still in the mock up stage....the engine build has changed from the original 318/390 build to a 360/408 build and the block and heads are at my engine builders shop getting machined, the rotating assembly, cam, lifters, etc. have been delivered, so it shouldn't be long now before it's ready to drop in.....actually probably much sooner than I will be ready for it...lol
Picked up a real nice second hand Hurst Ramrod (v-gate) shifter and linkage from a friend....got it mounted up and have to say it is gonna be sweet....!!!!!! Will be a li'l bit of a challenge to get the boot right though with the stock shape hump, gonna need a li'l fiberglass work.
Please excuse the crappy cell phone pics.
Did some sheet metal removal on the hood.....man was I nervous on that one.....LOL Need to locate another Edelbrock 1406....snagged this one locally off craigslist 8)
A shot of the new Scat Cast 4" Crank, Rods and KB-Icon Forged Pistons waiting for a new home :-D
