Its time for an update. I bolted the head to the block and finished taping off the head. Last week i bought a couple of parts off craigslist. 06 Honda Ridgeline tailgate and hinges. My plans are to have my Mazda tailgate open both ways like the Ridgeline. The other part i got is a 94 Toyota 4Runner tailgate and window run. This is what i am going to use for my roll down back window. Today i received my K675-38 Weber carburetor. Now i have everything for the motor, i can send it out to get painted.

Thank You Faeraby! The intake took so time to shave and weld but i love the way it turned out. Im getting more parts ready to be dropped off this Wednesday to have them chromed. I bought a Pace Setter header that is metallic-ceramic coated. They call it (Armor*Coat). Im not sure what diameter of exhaust piping ill be running or muffler ill be using. I do know this, its going to be chromed! haha

Before I send everything off to paint i've decided to shave the transmission. Grinder with a 120 flap wheel. Now im going over it again using 220. As you can see ive only got the tail shaft done in 220.
