Had to use "Striker" valve cover spacers and fabricate a new water pipe for heater but I think it was worth the trouble. Hope to "fire up" this weekend.
Check out new alum. radiator overflow tank. I think it looks a lot better than the white plastic OEM tank.

Lookin good, you've sure been busy in that motor bay.

Did you get the Striker heads too, besides just the spacers? I want to one day get me a set of these heads for my NA project.

Thanks, started in Dec. or so. Yes, those are Striker heads. I had to use the spacers to keep the rockers from hitting the gen 3 valve covers This is my new engine designed by Joe Donovan and built at Arrow racing. Joe is trying some ideas on this engine that he has had for a long but never been able to try...

Joe agrees, the "Striker" heads are "key".

Hope to have more soon...
