    No, that's the real deal. No waterpump or alternator, otherwise ready to bark.

    Eaaaasy there. I'm working on the radiator/water pump/lines/coil bracket now. Thinking we should add another aux radiator in the back like TS has. I've been watching the temps down by you, and MAN THAT'S HOT! Thoughts?

    I agree on the Aux Radiator.
     
  24. Man, I'd love a cammer - one of the ultimate Ford V8s (right up there with the Indy 4 cam and the old 1100 GAA tank engine!).

    Impressive as usual!

    Do you have any pictures of the toe board area? I am curious how your driveshaft tunnel structure/floor crossmembers tie in to the front frame.
