Whizbang will become famous soon enough
Okay so here is the current state of the car:

1. exhaust wise, the car is 95% done. I just need to weld up a section to connect the header to the muffler.

2. The intake manifold SHOULD finally be good to go. I am currently using a tweaked nikki setup but ran into some coolant leak issues. I think that it was the locating studs giving me crap. I removed them and now it seems to sit flush(er) than before. Plus i freeze plugged the coolant passages and Right Stuff'ed them accordingly.

3. Wiring should basically all be done less one or two ground connections and the "+" to the starter. Only a couple minutes worth of work.

D. The water pump housing has also decided to leak between the housing and the engine. Going to go back to the proper 12a housing which will allow me to have a proper alt. tensioner as well. Should be getting on from Pete tonight.

5. The fuel system is also 90% done. I just need some fittings to plumb the Holley FPR.
