  2. Finally got my intake gaskets, intake bolts, and distributor from summit, they went from Ohio, to Arizona, then Kentucky! At least they got to see some warm weather i guess. The .120 thick gaskets were the trick. Now we wait on the ice to melt off the lot and car. 20260201_113753.jpg 20260201_113806.jpg

    Lloyd,

    I'm really liking that green color on your engine. It might look equally good on the nailhead that'll be going into my '31 Model A sedan.

    Mind to let us in on the actual color name and/or code?
     
  4. It's from painthuffer.com, it's called challenger green. They have a bunch of cool colors. And this one covers good.

    Looks super there, Big Daddy! Is that a GM intake or a Victor?

    That intake needs to be polished to a high luster.

    My guess is that @Moriarity won't be on board with the distributor:cool:
