What intake are you using, does it fit under the hood, that is one sweet ride, I'm jealous...

Thank you!
(Coming from the owner of an aluminum 482 Kirkham, I do appreciate your kind words)
The manifold is an Edelbrock Victor FE single plane, ported to match the Edelbrock aluminum heads... It better fit!! Otherwise, I will drive around like a die-hard hotrodder, and my wife will not tolerate that

For the victor to fit under a Kirkham hood there has to be some modifications, usually cutting the carb pan down a bit, but the CSX uses different motor mounts so it might sit a little lower, still looks awesome love the white wheels, and the paint scheme, what a car.

Looking very nice! I am tempted to make a drive down to Olthoff's to see it (would give an excuse to fire up my car).

When do you expect to pick her up from Dennis?

If you do, take some pics for me

I keep adding things here and there (soon my pocket will put an end to that). However, the car should be ready for transport by next midweek, again, as long as I do not ask for more stuff

Sweeeeeeeet!!! Wow!!! I remember the first night mine was in the garage and I woke up at 2am, walked down the stairs, opened the entrance door to the garage, walked around the Beast in my bare feet to take a peek & make sure it was really there. My wife was wondering where I went so she came down the stairs to find me bending over in my boxer shorts with an old T-shirt wiping off the windshield and said........OMG.....You are SICK! Hmmm......I guess they just don't understand
