Hi George
Good to hear from you , Sure been a while. Last I heard you were rebuilding the engine in the Sidchrome Mustang.
The heads I purchased a while ago from CHI they flowed really good out of the box so all I did was match port them to the manifold runners. They needed water outlets boring into the front and bleed lines in the rear. The cam was mapped to the flow numbers. Fererra valves fitted and the rest of the valve train is from Comp-Cams.

The intake manifolds bottom plate is fixed in place on the engine then the rest is assembed on the bench. The oil pump is also getting a rebuild with a new main shaft and seals. A new bracket needs to be made and one for the alt and air-con compressor as well. A short cam angle sensor needs to be made to fit under the manifold. Now we are getting close

I brought a 302w cam angle sensor, copied the body but made it 30 mm shorter and chopped down a 351c distributor shaft and gear.
Made up a bracket for the oil pump and one for the alt and air-con.
Its tight and a test fit showed I need some mods to squeeze it into the car. It looks happy to be there but:)
