so just a few updates. just installed a yukon posi unit and richmond gears so no more one wheel peel. also picked up a trick flow cover



then i rigged up my own $4 cowl induction air cleaner. i used a cheap wallmart pizza pan, some aluminum flashing i had laying around and an old trunk seal. seems to work good.



and the last thing is my custom trailer hitch shift knob. fits great in my hand and didnt cost me anything

 
reopened! thx mods!
 
Thanks for unlocking it guys! I know it's been forever since I've posted and I just havnt really been working on the elco. Even considered selling it but I decided to keep it for good. I need a new exhaust that isn't hacked together by me, to rebuild the rear end that I already blew up, install the edelctock aluminum heads I got and get it running good again.was just at the Carlisle national car show in PA and picked up this stainless pypes exhaust and some stainless tips for around $200. Still need anot her section but I'm just going to dump it before the rear tires out the side.
