hello everyone again. well after countless hours refining kit parts, digging thru the scrap box, scratchbuilding and crawling around the floor looking for parts that vanished from my tweezers, i finally have an engine. i will keep the headers afterall and locate the battery to the firewall somewhere. i wanted it in the trunk but there wasnt enuff room.
for the drive belts i carefully cut away the kit off center and poorly molded pulleys and made new ones or modified ones from my parts bin. i then painted them and glued them back onto the belts. the alt pulley was good and i left it alone. the belts were cut and small sections were taken out so the pulleys would line up on the crank and water pump and blower. as you can see this process isnt done yet and i still have to make an alternator and coil and lots of little details. dont have a rad yet and still looking for carbs.
cheers.
