Ya the old support bar wont clear the intake now, made some new ones that go to the top of the firewall.

Aint done much on it lately, been thrashing on my old smallblock car i sold to my buddy trying to get ready for a race in two weeeks and just finish it in general. After that ill get mine done. Just have to build the lh side headers, go through trans, throttle linkage, change frt springs etc... Holefully here in a month it will be ready to fire up.
