More progress on the engine. Getting closer to completion. This kit uses the wrong fuel system for this car and even though I have the correct system 3D printed I honestly like the incorrect systems looks better. To me, it fills up the area better and makes the engine look more complete. (And I have seen this system in pics of what appears to be the restored car).
A few more parts added, fuel filters, water pumps, cooling fan and altenator, etc. Also, a little more weathering in the form of dry brushing and washes and picked out a few more nuts and bolts with Titanium Gold. Pre-drilled a lot of holes for the kit suggested plumbing as well as a lot of additional plumbing that needs to be done. Still a lot of work to do!
And the cool fuel rails and injectors used with this fuel system. Once installed and plumbed with some braided line I think these will look great.
