I hope so! Selling stuff usually finances a good size chunk of my builds.

Since you are already going non original engine and a 509 BB to boot, Day 2 under the hood should be mandatory...

😀 I sure can’t argue with that! But back in the day I was pretty attached to Chevy’s Green Pages (“High Performance Parts And Modifications”) manual that would eventually become the Chevy Power Manual. So I was never enamoured with Super Coils, fly air cleaners and so on. This car will be a mix of high perf Chevy and select aftermarket pieces just like my old one.

I meant like your Blue one, headers, valve covers, open cleaner. I did have a Mallory unilight electronic conversion on my '70 Chevelle in the mid seventies with their coil on the firewall, but that was it.

We’re on the same page Mitch! Thank you. W
