    Here is an update guys. The car is running awesome, i put an electric vaccume pump on it to control some oil seal problems and it worked out well.

    Gael, i'm using the Ford Racing Z303 to see how it'll work with turbo boost. If it doesn't work out i'll buy an F303 and use it, as they are great turbo friendly cams (one fellow putting out 1200+hp with one!:jaw: )

    thanks guys, i have about 1/4 of an inch from the snout to the fans. The rad is as far forward as it will go without removing the upper rad support. How thick is the mark VIII fan? I have just over 2 inches between the rad and water pump pulley/snout.

    ok, last pictures before i fire it up (this weekend) I threw the switch for the battery....no smoke...no flames, all is good in my world! The pipes off the back of the mufflers are too close to the ground so i'll loosen the clamps and rotate them up a little for more ground clearance. I...
