Thanks you guys. Progress is movin' along on this one finally. I worked on thinning the radiator out some this morning so the engine would fit nicely in the bay and test fit the modified headers in place. Looks like this is going to work out very well as they fit great and exit out in just the right place.

Man, that looks just right!

Thanks fellas!!
I managed to get the engine installed and the headers painted and attached. I added a small amount of blueing to the end of the exhaust outlets. No much....just enough for effect. I also painted and installed the driveshaft. About all that's left here is to fabricate some steering linkage and this part will be done.
There'll be some scratch built wheelie bars on down the line.
