Looks fantastic! You should spin Fred around 90 degrees in the garage so you have more room to work.

Motors together and primed! Intake just set on for pic.

Valve covers are on the wrong side, I just grabbed one quick to put on when priming to prevent oil from leaking out of the head.

Real nice looking, reminds me I should make my crappy garage have a nice floor.

Again I'm looking forward to seeing it. I'm sure Boosted feels he's found the perfect caretaker with all the quick progress you've made.
