Going to start back on the firewall this weekend. I had it finished and then I decided to move the engine back 5 inches....lol......I do everything 3 times.

Too bad it's a sbc... I was hoping it was a 421 Pontiac!

Still... VERY COOL build!!!

Yeah I'm not a Pontiac purist. I do have a couple pontiac 4 bangers from Tempest and a 326 but they don't have the power of this engine.......My 421 doesn't have one single Chevrolet part in it except the intake Manifold.
