Straight is all I'm concerned about  :  I'll slow down for corners  :grin:

Plan for when the car is done to visit brother (old race guy) in Ont. next summer. Close to you. If money/time permits, I'll drop down into the States for a visit !

Engine finally back from CA !
Was test fitting the new water pump & pulleys. Pump is 1.5" shorter than normal, for more clearance. Problem is with the alt. No one makes brackets for a BOSS 302. I think I have it figured out though.
Air cleaner is not the one I'll be using.

I was going to wait to drop the engine in as I do not have the new bell yet. Was driving me crazy, so...
I went with a different oil pan. Means I have to lift the engine 1.25" or lower the steering rack. May need to alter the fire wall if raised. Will not be sure what I'll do till the new bell gets here.

Is that polished aluminum pulley that you took off in order to drop it in, where the hand crank goes?
