Here's a progress shot of my engine tidy up. It's slow going, but getting there. Already have a new upper radiator hose on since taking this pic.

Thought some may be interested in the RHD steering box location too. Took some work to get the headers to clear it.

Beatiful. :yesnod: Nice job. But where is the vacuum advance tube going from the dist? :confused:

Very Nice! :)

Thanks for the compliments guys. I'll post some more pics when it's looking a bit better. As for the vac advance line, it's plumbed into the front of the carb where it always went, but at this stage I hadn't shortened the hose that connects it to the carb so it looks like it's heading somewhere it shouldn't. As you can see, I've replaced all the old rubber hoses with stainless steel ones that I bent and polished which I like to think makes for a much tidier set up.

Very nice power house you have there B :)

I like the way the sparkplug wires are all lined up. By the way where did you get the clips from? :thumbs:

Brutus

I bought them as a set from a shop in Florida when I was over there last year. If iIstill have the packaging I'll try to get a name for you.

Hey Bob, you installed the steering box on the wrong side of the car! :D

That engine bay looks really sharp. :thumbs: I have a set of the red Moroso valve covers here. Maybe some day I'll get to put them on my engine. Until then thanks for posting the picture, and giving me something to dream about.

:cheers:

They are the same looms that I bought for my ZZ4 execpt mine are for center bolt valve covers. They really look great IMO and come in a variety of colors. I got my from Summit are are from a company called Made for You Products http://store.summitracing.com/defaul...art=wire+looms
here is the link to the ones seen in Bob's picture.

Found out the name of the spark lead separator kit is from R&M Specialities. Hope that helps. As for where I got them from, I can't be of much help there. All I can tell you is that I got them from a parts place in Bradenton Fl.
Btw, just got back from our club's yearly car show where I scored the Best Engine Bay trophy! :eek: Turned out to be a great finish to a day that started off very badly.

Edit: Here's another pic I just found.
