Its been ages since I have much time to move the project ahead. Family and work can really get in the way of wrenching! ;)

If this works, there should be a link to photobucket.

Some of this pics are older but about half are from today.
Its idles smoothly when assembled! I need a nicer mounting brackets for the oil cooler and the oil pump(its hiding by the base pan).

I'm waiting for my 3/8" NPT pipe tap to arrive in the mail so I can complete my plumbing of the oil system.

The Mr. Turbo kit came with mild steel pipe for a banana pipe exhaust. I'm trying to design one like the old kits had. Also the kit just has one throttle cable. For safety's sake, I'll order a set of push/pull from Barnett's.

Comments and pointers are always welcome.

i really like how your cooler lines are mounted the way you have them routed really makes sense and it keeps the oil lines away from the side of the engine like most people insist on running theirs the way you have done itis the way i'll be doing mine as well
