Looking good and very brave of you to tackle that on your own.

Don't forget to flip your brake reservoir fluid lines over. Remember, the 90 degree bend goes on the master cylinders and the straight end goes to the reservoirs.

It doesn't look like you're going with an oil cooler. Are you going to put some dummy lines in the nose? If so, a single line that goes from one connection, loops over the top and down to the other looks okay.

Thanks for the nice comments.

Funny what you will end up taking on when you are used to working alone. Perhaps there was a bit of stupidity or impatience involved with the decision, but i couldnt stand i any longer. I had the free time and it was begging to be installed.
No, Im not going with an oil cooler. i dont think a street car needs an oil cooler, especially with an all aluminum 427.. I have the broken one that came with the car and i plan to put it back in place and run some faux lines. I have plenty of -12 an line leftover from building the other ones. I hate to put up a facade, but that area looks really naked without the oil cooler.
