nice looking car - chevy engine not a problem - it's a replica anyways
just a quick observation - in the 3rd pic (showing engine bay) - it looks like a Glass fuel filter - first thing to remove if so, along with the air filter unit.
I've read to many stories of the glass filters breaking and chucking out fuel onto hot areas - not good
Air filter apparently catch fire - paper filter so another thing to remove.
good luck and drive steady.
