Shell Valley build
The first coat of paint has been sprayed in the engine compartment. After it drys, it will be sanded and a second coat applied. I may have to do 3 or 4 coats to get it where I'm satisfied.

CSX 3012
Lothar Motschenbacher's CSX 3012. This photo was taken at the Santa Barbara airport course on May 29, 1965. Motschenbacher purchased the car new from Shelby American, raced the 1965 season and sold/traded the car back to Shelby American at the end of the year, It was later used in the Elvis Presley movie, Spin Out, in 1966.

The younger gentleman standing next to the car is believed to be (but not positively identified as) Lother Motschenbacher, owner and driver of the car in the 1965 season. The Clarence Dixon Cheetah #33 appears in the background.

Fuel Line -Hard Tube Steel Adapter to 6 AN Flex Line
To ensure I use all steel, I had to use different vendors, Aeroquip hard tube compression fitting and Earls Auto fit hose end, Russell fuel hose, but all coated steel material for a reliable leak free fuel connection. This is intended as a street application so NO aluminum line is used. Remember, aluminum hard line may not be D.O.T. legal for the steet in your State!!

500+ HP Engine Water Jacket Coolant Flow Requirements
This chart shows the linear relationship between the heat rejection (load) of the coolant and the required (calculated) coolant flow in the engine water jacket. It is determined for 3 different temp gradients of the engine inlet and outlet coolant temp. This engine example is from a 500+ horsepower supercharged gas engine assumed to have heat rejection up to maximum power (8,000 btu/min). Why do we care? If you cant keep engine temps under control at speed under load, you may have: 1) insufficient water flow, 2) undersized radiator, or 3) insufficient air flow through the radiator that needs to be addressed. This engine will require coolant flow in the lower part of the curve in street applications (low heat rejection), but for racing/track use this engine will require coolant flow rates towards the top of each curve. For older V8's pre-emissions, the common design target is to keep the radiator Inlet @ 190 F and outlet @ 180F or an average core temp of 185F at steady state conditions or the upper curve shown. Modern engines may use a little higher 195F-185F or rad core avg temp of 190F.
