Yes, certainly “Full Monty” for this one but just between you and I ;-) my Penny Bank is starting to empty pretty fast so the Webers may be delayed awhile but I did at least have the engine cammed correctly for them. The tranny will be a TopLoader simply because I’m convinced I’d kill a T10 in short order. I’m currently chasing down TopLoader parts that will duplicate the original T10 shifter position and total length. The car is scheduled to ship early May so it’s already in final assembly and I’m anxiously awaiting photos from the factory.
Ok, this is your thread so that’s enough about my build. I’m admittedly excited to share my build with some of the other 289 guys here and I really appreciate your kind words - Thank you!

Hey Kurt - do you have a build thread for your FIA? I see it's scheduled to ship early May? If you don't have one, start a thread....tell us more!
Cheers,
Glen
