It will be at the Sema show with a cover on it "BASF Booth" I'm assured.

I've got a dry sump pump setup very similar to that engine, and I've stared at it many times wondering if there was room for an A/C compressor somewhere, and now I know that it can be made to work. I believe Roush uses the Billet Specialties FEAD system. It almost looks like it doesn't interfere at all.
Oh yeah, I see, their pump is mounted lower on the block than mine, I am actually using the lowermost timing cover bolt hole for the pivot point which is why I can't fit a normal tensioner in there. Still, its helpful to see how the drivers side stuff is mounted.
If you have any closeup photos of how the oil pump mounts I'd love to see them.
Hey enough of the date questions already. I just might have to start from the very, very begining...
Staci @ Ring Brothers will be very upset if I give you all to much to soon. Ya never know who out there may have a heart condition.
I think the front bracket & pulley system is from Vintage Air.
It is just amazing to me that Ring Brothers equipped with a roll of tape, cardboard, and scissors can do what they do. I must have missed that class in school.

First of all, Wow.
Secondly, Thanks for posting all these pictures of the build progress.
Looking at a finished car is one thing, but getting a look at it's construction and design by builders of this caliber is simply mind-boggling.
If a picture is worth a thousand words, this simple web thread is an entire set of encyclopedias
Thanks Mike,
Great looking AMC you have.
When I look at these build pictures and when I get a chance to visit my car I'm still in awe.
JA- more pictures to come.

The car is looking great. I love fab work with tasteful use of dimple dyes. It makes the car look so much cooler when you see all of the custom touches going into it.
