Hey Jody,
Great work on all the lines - they look awesome! New throttle body is a work of art, too... hope you’re able to get the cruise control to work with the Holley EFI - might need to think about that for mine. Like the plate, too, and hard to believe that was still available in CA!

Thanks to Rick Love at Vintage Air and Nathan at Kahn Media I have a front drive!  This is a brand new item for Vintage Air, using a one-piece casting to hold all the accessories. Also it's a mid mount, which I much prefer, keeping all the accessories in tight to the middle of the engine instead of hanging up high or outside the heads. Fit and finish is excellent, a very simple and sturdy install. Now I can finish up the hot side fab for the Turbo and get rolling again.

I saw these in the VA catalog when we were @ LoneStar Throwdown/Conroe TX a couple of weeks ago.
Vintage Air's version of Holley's Mid-Mount kit/s.

I love the billet pulleys on the VA kit.

Nice.
Does the new cast center use a LT "cartridge" style water pump?
I've got one of the older black anodized billet bracket VA frontrunners, it's a nice piece (but more belt wrap on the power steering pulley world be nice)

That's a good looking front drive, Jody. Will you leave it raw aluminum or coat it?

Wasn't planning on coating it.
