Fuel lines for the engine finished, fabricated the fuel log to feed the race bowls for the Holley.

Made up the bracket to mount the oil filter adapter.

Got the alternator mounted, pulleys spaced correctly.

Started working on something to fit behind the cover under the alternator.

Nice tank. Question, did you TIG weld the tank, or torch? The cleaning lines look so nice that my novice eyes can't tell.

The hipo alternator pulley should just sneak in there I believe.
We should know for sure very soon

Looking nice Craig. The thing I dread the most is making oil lines and fuel lines, it is too easy to get them too long an have to cut them back, or even worse, too short . Also, with the braided steel ones invariably my fingers become sore due to the puncture wounds from loose steel wire braids.
