Use the shortpoly locks on the exhaust and they will fit under the stock covers

Freddie, is that an oil pressure switch on the bottom LH side of your block? I'm thinking of installing mine there as well. Are there any benefits to doing so vs the stock location above the oil filter?

Thank you for the tip. The engine is pretty much done and the thicker cork gaskets did the trick. Engine builder sent me this teaser pic today but I will remember your tip for next time.

I thought Bill was referring to trimming the dripper tabs inside to covers so the polylocks would clear. Looking great Jose!

I have the sending unit for the gauge in the stock location. The one that you see in the picture is for the oil pressure light mounted on the side of the tach. I also have one in the center of the block for the electric fuel pump. If there is no oil pressure the fuel pump will not run.

My Red car has been sold.
As part of the multi-part deal to own my dream car, my Red 67 has a new owner in Ohio. I wish I could have kept both but with our new home, my family, and limited funds I had to keep my priorities right. I'm excited for the Red car as it will receive a screaming 302/ 4 speed. I kept all the parts I bought for Red and will use the drivetrain to get my 1967 L78 going which is located in the L78 forum. I missed out on that L78 car once, and almost a 2nd time until it was to my good fortune I knew someone (Bbbentley) who asked if I wanted the car that was local to him. Through God's intervention and his kindness he went above and beyond to make sure the deal was done and I'm forever grateful for it. Thank you all for all the support throughout this build and check out the Black L78!

Yeah I'm excited about the black L78 build, please post a lot of pics!!!
