Took the pan down to the shop today and switched the pan and hardware..........The only problem was that the bracket that holds the pick-up tube in place was not formed correctly and there were some clearance issues with the windage tray......the instructions shown how to modify the windage tray to suit.....but.....it would have been easier for Holley to do their job correctly and just form the bracket with a tighter radius so it would clear.....anyhow we cut and welded the bracket to suit........much easier.....just a minor glitch....after that it was a 5 minute job.....I also picked up a NOS "Made In America" original GM fender.....I almost don't want to put it on the car it's so nice.....Thanks to Jon Krogh

Jon is certainly a great resource to have when working on a late 60's full size Chevy....and he's a hop, skip, &amp; a jump away from you!

Kenny don't you worry...after you get done with that car I'm sure the fender will be proud to be on that car!
