April 12,2011 update...As you can see in the pictures we have come a long way. We are now in the process of adding painless wiring and air conditioning from OLD AIR PRODUCTS in Ft. Worth Texas. We have added power steering and a 100 amp alternator. The engine modifications include a Holley 350 CFM Offenhauser Intake with heated plate added to the bottom of the intake and Pacesetter headers. With the .060 ths over and all the other mods to the engine we are looking for an additional 40 t0 50 H.P. With the addition of air conditioning we wanted more air in the engine compartment so we added an electric fan. Every modification and up grade has been a "SHADE TREE ENGINEERING" challenge, for instance, when we added the electric fan we had to move the radiator 3 inches forward to clear the water pump housing. Stay tuned we should have the engine installed in 10 days.
