Still on the stand, but ever closer. Hopefully mounting the trans and going back in the car Sunday.
Old valve covers on just for mock up purposes and to avoid oil leakage.

It is getting there. Spent all of tonight working on wiring and cleaning up previous &quot;birds nest&quot; wiring.
Got the panel all wired up, tested everything and all is working. Having to make custom aluminum panels
for the cowl to mount my gauges outboard like the red one was.
Turned motor over just checking the starter. Sounded good, no shims needed.
Looks like tomorrow we will get the carb on and fire it up.
I was busy enough today that I didn't take any pics.

DONE!!!

Final work-


Power distribution-


Final wiring on my trademark gauge mounting-


Engine complete-


Not my first choice of air cleaners, but it's all that would fit,
A 2&quot; K&amp;N filter with a Spectre top-


Oh yeah, that pretty QuickFuel 1050 that's all covered up-



But it rocks for now-


It has been 2 1/2 months since I have seen this view!-


More to come after Saturday night once it is cleaned up and out romping around.
