Welp,
A little delayed, but thought I'd get this thread going over here. Here's a vid of my car as of February and now Ive pulled the motor and concentrating SOLELY on that component of the car. After that, I guess I'll be moving on to the gearbox and chassis. Enjoy.

I saw this ride over on the Aircoolers site a couple of weeks ago and was telling some of the guys around here about it.
Mighty fine ride, you got there! :thumbs:

Thanks guys! The car has been under my ownership for two years now, and I probably should of started a thread on this a while back. I bought a motor right after I bought the car and now Im concentrating just on that. Its a 2110cc (76x94) - Aluminum Autolinea case, 043 heads ported and polished, 120 cam, straight gears, 44 idf's, etc, etc. It started with a Jake Raby DTM Fan Shroud set up. Since then Ive went with a traditional 36hp doghouse kit, upgraded to an MSD ignition system, changed to a bellcrank style linkage, and so on. Just little stuff. About 2 weeks ago, I pulled the motor to finally do everything to the motor, FOR GOOD, so that I can move on to something else on the car. I wanted to go all black, so thats what Im in the midst of doing. Here are some pictures of the motor as it looked when I first got it. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely loved the DTM shroud setup, but it just didnt look right to me in an early car.
