Everything is looking great, especially the engine! Did you just weld some alluminum tubing on the valley cover and press in the factory oil fill tube? Attachment 1070236

That is correct,I had the machine shop machine the hole in the aluminum tube , then welded it to the plate I had made, then hammered a factory tube into it. Hope this makes sense?

Yeah that looks great! That's a really cool idea on these LS engines to give them more of a vintage touch! Well done sir!
