Ruby's going to be a pretty thing with a demond inside
Look's great Ed, can't wait to hear the dyno #'s
We'll have to take the targas out some day soon, getting my old '77 back with it's stock 3.2 in the next week or two.

Can't wait to see the car Rick. Hopefully, this lump will go back in, in a couple of weeks.

Let Us locals know if you need a hand with the install.
I'll be checking the thread out every few days.

Very cool!! When you get this kitten running, please post some video or at least audio. I would love to hear Ruby's new heart.

Then you should be asking 'bout the drip tray, no.

I just love the details.

Ed I have only one request. Can you consider buying those sparkplug cap retainer things that look like metal tabs and bolt on to the valve cover studs, even though you don't need them? I don't know why that thought came to me, just that your motor looks like a race motor that I'd see in a book somewhere.

I have those. I also have some more of the looped wire guides to go on. I'll probably get the dizzy in this week.
