Primed the trunk. Switched to the old siphon fed my stepdad gave me a few years ago. He probably never cleaned it properly, but it paints beautifully. Way better than my cheap harbor freight hvlp

Went with arp main studs w/windage tray, the kind folks at arp sent me 2 bolts for the #5 so I could clear the oil pump. Inching along! Also, going to experience the LD340 with thermoquad for myself

340 going to its final resting place this weekend. Scamp now has full brakes including e brake. Managed to find the elusive engine mounts in Carlisle this year. Welding an ear on for the drivers side and good to go!

Anybody ever use pro-form roller rockers? I bought them because for $400 they are bronze bushes and advertised to clear my spring diameter which obviously isn't the case.

Alright! No good way to do this other than just buying a fiberglass hood. SEM dual mix panel adhesive to bond the hood and scoop with tech screws overnight, then laying fiberglass over the flange.
