Goodbye red hose, hello aluminum hard lines!

Looks good. 2 things I hate is rubber fuel hose and headers. I'm not sure which one I dislike more. Probably the rubber hoses because the are so dangerous.

 

I think that's a compliment?

The carbs are Ford/Holley 94's and they and the adapter came from the Dickster here on the H.A.M.B. - he posted up earlier on this thread.

 

Looks great! Not much worries me, but clear fuel lines, bad chassis welds and cars w/o front brakes all make me nervous.
I like your throttle bracket. Any plans to "unpaint" the Weiand intake manifold? Natural or polished aluminum intakes are just a personal preference of mine.

 

Looks great. Thinking about this update myself and will have to talk with Dick.

 

I have been looking for a new manifold, one with a front tube and a slight rise for the right price and once I do it will be beaded & bare.

 

Punctuation marks are your friend... wait... punctuationmarksareyourfriend...

 

At first I thought that was a nailhead, given the color, now I gotta ask, is that Detroit Diesel Alpine Green?

The lines look good, way more "professional".

You caught me, yes it is Detroit Diesel Alpine Green

 

I thought so... I just played hell finding that stuff from the OEM, by the gallon! But I did find it for the guy... Locally even.

Good eye too as the color doesn't show up correctly in the pictures, looks more teal.

Locally here in Michigan huh? Where at?

 

They both look good but i sorta like the red hoses....

 

The original OEM was Titan Paint, now they're called United. The address is Detroit, but it's a 248 phone number. PM me if you want the contact info.

I work at the DDC customer support center, so instead of Hemi orange or Ford blue, my blood runs Alpine Green.

I like the red hose,too.The new stuff that is sold by Mooneyes is much better than the old import stuff speedway has. I don't have a lot of pressure,so my red hose has held up for 5 years on a 292 GMC with a 390 Holley.
