SAME BRACKET BACK TO BACK
Assuming that the reatangular side should be placed on the frame and the "ears" ar ewhere the control arms mount.
This would place the left and right control arms in different planes and not parallel to each other.
The rectangular side has a interference with the shock tower and the mounting holes do not align and not adjustment is possible.

Same bracket back to back with irregular side on frame
This position permits the irregular ear side of the bracket to fit around the shock tower and any of the holes can align with the slots in the frame.

alternate possible position, rectangular side to frame
Note straight edge of bracket is in contact with the shock tower and the only one of the two holes will align with the mounting bolts.

Shell Valley build
Holes were cut and the main roll bar hoop installed. Roll bar and down legs were made out of 2 inch DOM .120 wall mild steel tubing. Bending was done by Boyce Industries in Melrose Park, IL.

Pic showing the drilling template with 2 holes drilled. In the background is a template I made by putting cling film on the bonnet, and getting the curve into body filler. This mould template was then used to ensure the AC would fit the curve of the bonnet.

Mcleod steel flywheel for 460
This also shows my home made engine plate I made with a jig saw and a nice set of files. Trick was to use the old rusted one as my template and the starter bolt holes and register bore was my datum point to ensure correct starter alignment.

Napa 10764
Installed a makeshift bypass system for my Weber Manifold set up. Seems to have cured the cooling system ailments. Also, fuel was getting too warm. I cut oblong holes in the uprights for the fuel log. Seem to have cured that problem also. So much for that yard work today....

Trunk hinge support
When I got this kit the trunk lid and hood were not attached to their frames. So before joining the two together I figured I would give the hinges something solid to bolt to...and also add some strength. The holes are 5/8 and I am making some press fit threaded collars to put in the holes for 3/8 bolts.

hood support close up.
Here you see the steel threaded collars pressed into the 5/8's holes. I didnt want to thread the aluminum for fear of the threads possibly pulling through.

Inspection holes
Cut two holes in trunk tub to use for inspection holes, will make a double layer plug to fill them, bottom layer will fill the hole, top layer will over lap sides of hole to keep the weather out.
