Buttoning everything up. Side covers, timing cover, oil pan, water pump, thermostat all in.

Interesting note. The ARP studs extend all the way into the water jacket so that the it interferes with the water pump. I had to back off one of the arp studs at the front passenger side to be able to install the water pump.

Also had to cut the offy manifold bolt holes in half because they interfered with the SPA manifold.

Anyway. Going to rebuild the carb tomorrow and try to get that and the distributer installed so I can put in the car and get it broken in so I can have it all sealed up for the move to chicago.
