Very nice !!
I have the same intake and it can be challenging to find all the correct parts to get everything to fit nice.

I believe the upper alt bracket should be on the front of the alt. It appears bowed from bending to be on the back side...

I put in a vice after I took this picture and straightened it. If the alternator is on the other side, the bracket hits the upper radiator hose.

I chose an old Coors can due to it’s popularity in California. I know many places in the country couldn’t get coors back then…

In the mid seventies, a guy down the street would make a run to CO a couple times a year and bring back 12 cases of Coors. It is good beer, very mellow, but Miller High Life, the original beer, not this light crap, was about as good and local, so I helped their stock rise for a number of years.

I used to love Miller when I was younger. The Coors can is still way cool but I gotta hand it to you Chas...those headers look flat out killer. Motor is looking like a million bucks now.

Betcha it's starting to feel like a million too isn't it?

Keep up the great work buddy.

Wow. Those M/Ts must have quite a few hours in them. They came out beautiful.
