Thank you for posting your progression!
Was the white on the firewall front plastic to protect the panel on the photo a few images up?

I think this is correct. I have the unit with brake switch near fame.

Nice work - I found getting those lower control arms installed in the frame mounts to be a bit of a struggle. A better position for leverage and 25 years younger would probably have helped a little.

Phil,
Bare interior looks great all in black.
Keep the pictures coming.
You may have noticed...I'm trying to gee-up more posting of builds like yours. I love it, and I've said it elsewhere, it keeps me coming back (almost) every day to the forum to check what's happening with builds.
Cheers,
Glen

They are wiper tubes. There's an illustration in the assembly manual around page 100.

Thank you all. when I installed it a month ago, I read the Manual but could not put 1+1 together.. Now I see the light... Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving... Next week I start building the engine and purchasing the heads...

Phil,
Nice progress!
Once you have the motor built, will you take it to a shop and have it run in and tested on a dyno, or start it for the first time in the car?

Ok then , not much has happened work wise. Did install crank and gapped rings for pistons... Should install them next week. I have been cleaning up wire harness and all plumbing . Making sure no chaffing will occur . Transmission..... None yet. Cobra automotive has been trying to hunt down one for them to re-build, David Kee has no casting ready yet, so no Toploader for me at this time... It looks like I'm going to go with the TKO 600 from Lykins Motorsport with the Sure shift upgrade.

Clutch Slave Cylinder.
So I like to find out if any of you have used ERA Clutch Slave Cylinder they provide. I have the Quicktime Bellhousing RM-6065 and the Mcleod Clutch Fork SBF MCL 16934... The cylinder I recieved when the car was shipped was for a Lakewood unit. Going to call ERA and see if the have a mounting bracket for the Quicktime.
