Re: a few pictures of my 68 with gen III 5.3

Yes I plan on the AC, the compressor fit with no notching of the frame however I have have to grind it some to get the hoses on the factory ones will not fit and I am not sure if some custom ones will or not but it will be working before next summer. The engine is set way back so that helped on the AC clearance as well as the vette manifolds.
It runs very strong it is still stock I want to do a cam change but will wait for a while.

I just painted the engine cover and yes it will get a lettering change Red would look good I was originally thinking Black but I may rethink now. I would like to find a different one but this works just fine.
Thanks all for the compliments it has taken a long time to get this far.
Dave
