Inching up on twisting the tail. Waiting for a new front bearing for the alternator and then I should be ready to go.

I am waiting for distributor parts from Roto-Faze. Having said that, I put new points and condenser in the 170 dist and spun that on the machine today to set the dwell. Added the lightest springs I had, to bring the advance is as quick as possible. I'll map the curve to see where it really is once it's running.

Going to fire the car with the old exhaust.....making sure all is well. Then, build the new system:grin:

On a different note, if one of you has an original 14" air cleaner base that has had breather tube removed (like for a double pumper) I'd be interested......

I can't wait to see that '68 Camaro on the road, Tim.

Got the old exhaust off. I'll preserve the tailpipes and hangers. The rest, off to the scrapper.

I kinda cringed at my handy-work on that exhaust pipe but when it developed a hole the size of a quarter it was either preserve or replace. Can't wait to see what the new system looks like Tim!

That looks and sounds fantastic. Looking forward to a video of your first road test.:3gears:
