Well, it may not count, but one of these pics is the 327 in my '63...Sorry, I'd already started the
cleaning process.

The next one is the motor I have now...Or, at least, the way it looked when I first got it, and mocked up the serp system.
The last one is the motor when it went back into the "engine bay".

It will work, for sure. But I doubt it will get too dirty. Then again, I see no correlation
between how much a motor *works* and how dirty it is....But that's just me.

Re: Post Your Engine Bay Pics!!!!!!

Anyone know where I can easily get one of those hard-tubes that go from the thermostat to the radiator couplings?

Thanks.

I have been surprised to see how many of even the high end bays here have just the plain ole rubber hose.
