Bout the only thing to do is clean up the garage and get the car inside so I can get going on sanding/painting engine bay. Im going with no power steering and no AC as well.

It had GT40 "iron" heads, B cam, and the normal EFI intake.

Took it all off and put on the Holley Systemax upper lower, aluminum heads, Holley cam. It will have 24lb inj. 76mm mass air. Removing AC and PS. Im hoping for 310-320 to the rear wheels when Im done. Started with 249hp. Ultimate goal: To have it runn the same times as my Cobra did (12.27) in May. This car ran a 13.4 in may w/the prior combo.

You my firend have a GREAT memory. That was some chick w/a nice pooper that I just had to take a pic of. It was at the NMRA opener here in Bradenton, March 06. Let's see what I can find this March.

Anyone in Pinellas County wanna come over and help me knock out this engine bay so it doesn't take me forever?????

Actually, I was thinking about painting it white. Black or white are my two options, but seeing as how the exterior is white I'll probably go with that.

Dont do white...gets dirty easily. +1 on the flat black it would look way cleaner

Wouldn't that mean I have to pull off the front quarters so that the paint job turns out good? Im not going as far as welding up the holes and everything, but it is going to look good. More pics for ya all.

Knew I had a crank underdrive pulley. Cleaned it up and put it on. I'm trying to contact March to see what kind of set up they have for just alternator, water pump and crank. They do make a set up for that, but their's is for an electric water pump.
