Re: crucial118's 86 Cutty Salon build

Got started on the hot side today. Bought some sbc tri-shorty corvette header off ebay(http://www.ebay.com/itm/350889795907?ss ... 1439.l2649). They didn't want to work with my tall valve cover's(especially the driver's side), so I had to go to the junkyard to find some stock center-bolt valve covers. Which I didn't think would work, until I cut the insides out. This also should help with my valve cover leak, due to the shitty design of the afr eliminator lower perimeter bolt holes. Turned out real good.

Cant wait to see final videos!
They're coming...eventually. :) In the meantime I found a good place for the -10 AN oil return, in the fuel pump block off plate. Really didn't want to lift the engine to drop the oil pan to drill and tap.
