Engine Before and After (so far)

The camera has been dead on my phone since I had it in my pocket and cracked the screen while tightening a fan belt so I haven't been able to document my work. Well, i got a new phone and decided I'd show off my work so far.

Done (somewhat in order): All fluids, plugs and wires, battery and cables, air cleaner, HEI, internal regulated alternator and bracket, replaced rams horns and bolts, dipsticks, valve covers breathers and pcv, painted master cylinder, Edelbrock intake thermostat and fittings, carb rebuilt (not by me). I need to tidy up the wires and cables and want to get some Calyx for the rams horns (the paint didn't take long to rust through). Lemmeknow whatchathink.

Re: Engine Before and After (so far)

All but what is showing is metal. I can ditch the pre filter now that the carb is done or I've got some stainless covered line I can use. Thanks!
