Well seeing how everyone is out of stock on the head studs were putting it together with the bolts. More as we get it assembled. Oops sorry about the girlfriend shot :cheers:

:glasses2::hello2:Your /6 is looking GREAT !!
Just my thoughts on that breather if you don't mind :glasses2:
If it ever back fires and melts the foam it will suck peace's of it in your engine.
They look nice and all, but I have seen them taken off just to see parts of the filter gone.. Just keep a close eye on it and you will be fine , Just had to share :hello2: Dig'en the valve cover work you did!!
 
and if you had a straight 8 instead of a slant 6..she probably would have hung around more....LOL

x2 i had one on my coronet that did that
 
Thanks for the heads up on the filter. I will probable try something different. I like yours Mike. Yeah all the maniquins looked the same :glasses2:
 
Finally its done and in. Just a few things needed like running new trans lines,fuel line,rad install,throttle hook up,all minor now. Plus a little shifter link adjustment.

turn that carb 90* so the primaries are farthest away from the head...

also i would think about making a support brace to that long intake...

Thanks for that bit of info on the air cleaner. I was just thinking of going with one of those the other day.
 
I also appreciated the heads up on the cleaner. Downfall is now I have a nice piece of chrome on a shelf. 805 I will turn the carb someone elde mentioned that but I forgot. If anyone ever does a swap with a colum shift to a floor swap the tail housings as there is a bracket on the floor thats not on the colum. Hopefully we get it running today :wav:
 
Looking GREAT!!!!!! just wait till you fire that / up or have you ?
You have dun a great job :hello2: I can't wait to do the same to Victoria :blob:
Let me thank you for keeping this thread updated with pictures of the install.
I ..Oop's....My son Creed almost has my ramcharger ready for the road so it may not be long now :bounce: so I can pull my / out and update the Head, I have a new big valve slight shaved one under my bed waiting .
I hope all the tuning and adjusting goes smooth and we get to hear that / purring soon.
 
Thats mighty fine work there Dizzy, I hope to hear good things in the days to come about how it runs and such. It sure looks nice, you should be very proud of your work so far!!! Geof
 
Well run after her boy, the car can wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I tried hemiroid but she melted :toothy7: Oh well back to the car I guess. 805 the carb and intake bolt pattern wont allow for turning the carb so it stay as is. Couldn't find an adaptor for the 90* rotation but I will have a brace made. Had to order the lower hose and have to run some rubber lines for the trans,connect fuel and washer hose. Just about there.
