The weather is finally starting to get cooler so it was time to get cracking so id be ready for the Texas BBQ. Got the new water pump on and the new Samco hoses with the 316 SS ABA clamps. And while I was at it fixed an oil leak that was coming from the ebbed plug on the drivers side cam cover. Kill two birds with one stone. But before I can drive it my insurance is up for renewal and my registration is way out. Hope you guys enjoy the pics and video.

Thanx. Its amazing how nasty a garage floor can getting after coolant and oil get all over the place. After scrubbing and sparying that out next comes the fun part. Putting all the tools away.:cheers: Ive got two big rollaways and thats still not enough for all the tools I have cuz they are packed. I'm gonna have to probably just beak down and invest in a great big one.

rick what did you use tyo get the phelonic spacer to match the porting ???/looks nice by the way I marked the spacers face 1 2 3 & 4. Then I bolted them to the IH housing and blended them and did the same thing on the plenum side. So there is a transitional blend that the spacers are actually part of. I can buy a whole roll of Felpro gasket stock any thickness I want for $3.50 and probably get 15 gaskets out of it. I even made the gasket that goes between the throttle body and air horn which worked great.
