    The carb setup is done!!!
    They come from some old hot rod and the crome are pretty ruff but I like that they look used.
    The fuelline are made in 3/8" stainless pipe all the way from the fuelpump.

    After all a Hot Rod are made to drive! <TABLE cl***=tyda_res_body_trans cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 hasbox="2"><TBODY hasbox="2"><TR hasbox="2"><TD cl***=tyda_no_padding_top hasbox="2"> </TD><TD cl***="tyda_trans_actions tyda_no_padding_top">[​IMG]

    Looks great! Nice stainless work.
    I prefer the used look over the new shiny look myself, more appealing to me.

    I couldn't agree with you more over your last comment.

    F**xing Hell!!!!
    What have I got myself in to?
    7 days until the car show and I haven't even started the engin yet.
    This is my "to do" list for this weekend
    Tomorrow: weld a aluminum gas tank and wire the engin.
    Friday: Start the engin.
    Saturday:Finish the wire work
    unfortunately my time plan have a tendency to be a little optimistic haha

    While doing the wiring, just remember "The 3 P's", "Patience, Perseverance and Profanity". It will get you thru just fine.:D
    Looking forward to seeing the finished rod!
