ok val thx i figured the stock pump would be good enough want to run without having to use a regulator want to make it look as stock as possible not clutter my engine bay.
yeah i figured the fiberglass would be bad idea,not enough support if in an accident,i will just have to get a new one for the 70-73 .

 

havent been able to get any work done the last couple days wich bums me out but been getting my engine ready to drop in my subframe,tomarrow my engine will arrive here,my brothers finally getting truck from work,cant wait to see how she looks in her new home then i can finally get back to work on my camaro,maybe nows the time to start plumbing my new exhaust,should be pretty easy with nothing in the way underneath and just my engine in there.

 

well im on my way to my brothers now to get my engine so i can get it in its new home tonight if everything goes right.

 

hopefully this will do the trick this is my first time running this engine with a carburetor.

 

well things didnt go as good as i hoped,got the engine but not installed yet but sitting next to my camaro,still have some detailing i wanna do,gonna paint my engine daytona yellow,with aluminum cast on the heads.

 

well didnt care for the yellow much so i went with the aluminum cast on the whole engine looks much better than the chevy orange i tried.

 

Wow! An all aluminum SBC!!

 

yeah now thats a first,i wish it was all aluminum,would be much lighter,that engines pretty heavy even though i used lightweight parts inside.

 

now i just gotta paint my firewall hugger orange,then she will be ready to drop in,boy its cold here in michigan hi of 27 today and snowing bad,winters finally here.
