Thanks guys! Much appreciated.

If there are any builders who want a template & instructions for the early rear light setup I have let me know and I'll take a tracing for you.

Cheers

Just received my new short eared spinners. I'll have more progress to post next (slowly but surely)...

Made some clamshell catch brackets/assembly. I used 1/8th inch x 2 x 36 inch aluminum to make 2 brackets from, metal brake to bend them and hole saw blades for cutting. Looks good and works well.

The rear ducts are now installed. I had to shorten the length in order to clear the anti-sway bar when the rear clip is closed. I removed 2.5 inches from the mid-point of the duct and then re-attached allowing them to move inwards enough to clear.

Resurrecting some past photos' of my 'lump'. I managed to pull a 289 from a 67 Cougar awhile ago (it took some doing to find a 289), casting says 66 and I''m sure it's not a Hi-PO (I have the C number). I would like to retain the iron heads (call me whatever) which they and the block have since been stripped down completely. I'm only looking for 1966 GT40 HP and torque numbers. I'll send everything our for mag particle inspection before re-building just to make sure.

Last pic is the standard I intend to build to.
