No real progress on the motor, I've got the replacement Indy rockers now,Trev is turning me up a new crank pulley and having another go at the valley plate to see if that can be made to work. Still waiting for a slightly longer external oil line, hopefully they'll get it right next time

Spent hours porting the intake, finally that's done. Currently sorting out the engine bay, that's turned into a bit of a project in itself...
Hope to have it all sorted by Christmas, time and money permitting.

He's trying to decide who to buy oil filters from.

No real progress at the moment, I'm on a weeks enforced holiday with strict instructions to go nowhere near the car

I have been doing a few bits and pieces though. Should have some stuff to report next week when I get back to it....

I know how you feel, i've spent a lot of time in the garage the last few months but after wrecking the car at York, i'm on decorating duty, i'll repair the car over winter.

What have you done Mick??

Guy, slight exaggeration, the prop went going through the lights at York and smashed the trans in two, fingers crossed i think everything else is OK.

Still struggling on, progress is really slow at the moment. It looks more like I'm breaking it than building it at the moment

Keep on keeping on!

Is that an early christmas deco rope light across the rad support?

It's 6.04am here and I'm just digging the VG out for a Mopar SuperCruise down the Gold Coast to Kingscliff in NSW.....Coffee & Fag on the patio, 21c, Brrr!

It's alright for some, I'm knee deep in freezing cold water here!
