[FunfGan]

Oh, a big box!




My millionth sheet of Summit stickers...




Gasket for the carb.

Looking good man.

[FunfGan]

Thanks man, any progress with parts for yours?

Got the throttle body finally, oil pan is mounted to the block. The engine is assembled, inspected/shimmed the oil pump, cam and valvetrain installed. Pulling the transmission out of the GTO this weekend, so the swap will be coming very soon.

In other words, you're about 95% ahead of me on swap progress. :)

Nice work. Throw that regulator in the trash right now and save yourself a world of pain... Holley makes a decent carb (low pressure) reg for not much $$.

Nice! And hey, yours is probably going to be done much better than mine

Really? I heard it was decent. I just don't have the money for a better one, and those were all $150+

Damn, I'll look into that and see if they have one with high enough psi. Thanks!

They have similar regs for many psi. Your chrome one only goes to 7 or 9 so i figured you were carbed.

Yes sir, thanks again. Couldn't find any cheap ones.

Well, finally got my Grip Royal steering wheel, NRG adapter and 2.5 quick release(no pics of the quick release or adapter, I'll grab some tomorrow).






Found a cap that fit my inline filler.




And most importantly, picked up my brand new carb and used intake mani. Just looks so right, but so wrong at the same time :)








Wiring for the electric choke.





Changed my stickers up.




Thats it for today, but big updates this weekend.

[CW325]

Whats your opinion on the Grip Royal wheel? Thinking about picking one up..
