Lookin pretty good man!

Can't wait to hear how she runs.... Wait, why isn't that aluminum painted slate blue?

Good luck with the hood clearance. I think that filter is gonna stick up too far...
When I was measuring for an HEI in one of our earlier discussions about the subject, the necessary cutout in the air cleaner housing on the stock one, chopped into where the air filter is inside the housing. Ultimately why I went with the pertronix system. It still kicks out 45,000 volts.
I'd love to do something like that on my '66. I really want to use the eyebrows above the headlights for a cold air induction. I think it'd be really cool to cut out that part in the middle, and add throttle-plates that pivot when you step on the gas, kinda like you see on those rediculous air scoops that stick out of the hood.
