I feel your pain! Hang in thereThumbs%20Up  It could be worse, it could be done sitting in your garage on an engine stand, but your not even close to being ready to drop it in.

Hey Paul when is your bro supposed ta have the new lil rat done? Are ya gonna use the intake / carb from your old beast? the Blacray is gonna get an upgrade over the winter so I was just curious.

The ground effects I was talkin about were in Richards # 2 Pic. It may just be a gap between the bottom of the car and the lift though. Shucks I cain't tell anymore. My eyes are startin to head in the same direction as my hearin.... away......

Paul which one of these rascals is it? Edelbrock RPM

Ya think I could run my Q-jet on it and still survive the hood clearance issue?

That is one reason I was looking at the 2101. I have seen them with the Q-jet on them w/o any clearance problems...
