It's magic, just stand back and look amazed. :eek: Scott's enlisted his buddy Jay to fancy up the wiring. This way we can blame it on him if it doens't work :p Don't tell Scott, but i've been skeptical of this engine ever since he brought it home with "Hey honey, look what I got" (i.e. look what I got suckered into). But I love my husband and I have complete and total faith in him :(

yeah but the valve covers look funny
Ha-ha, like I said - I have complete and total faith in him that it will be great. My concern was that we've been striving for simplicity (i.e. chevy 350) and then it gets this fancy engine. I'm sure it will be great...if it runs. :pQuote:

Cody came down on Tuesday evening and helped me get the main cage frame bent. I will be able to get the rest myself.
Didn't get home till 9:30 last night, I'm in Ruston LA tonight... :rolleyes: Hopefully I'll have some time to work on it this weekend
looks good. is that dash bar 1.5"? how tall is your "B hoop" from the floor? it doesnt look like your hoops are far enough inboard to run hard half doors. i dont know if you even want to run them, but i posted a pic in "project acrophobia" of how far in they have to be in case you want to move them. it'll probably be in the way of your glovebox though.
hard doors are for pussies... I have 1/8" between the tube and my glove box door.
Dash bar is 1.5" - don't get any ideas...
I think my "B" hoop was like 42 inches from the floor. I'm just going off memory though and I have slept since then ;)
my "package" from jeremy should be here tomorrow.
B pillar height is 47.5 to the bottom of the tube.
I got the Halos and the middle cross bar done. I will get the middle "B" pillar vert. bars done tonight. The rest is just bracing, the major design is done.
new oil pan, a pic of the cage middle bars.
I have the top of the cage just about done - just haven't taken any pics yet
looks great. do you have a spy working for you?
I don't think anybody has seen yours... Maybe you really don't have the cage done and are just looking at mine for ideas...Quote:

yeah, i just couldnt come up with anything so i decided to let you have the die and wait till you got done to steal the design.;)
there are really only a few ways to do a cage - especially if you plan on having a rear seat :gigem:
