Default Progress

I got the driveshaft painted with epoxy primer and installed:









I installed the Lokar throttle valve cable. I used a length of heat shrink tubing on it in the area where it is near the spark plug wires.



This Lokar throttle bracket is made specifically for the Edelbrock Pro-Flo 4 and is perfect. It has a provisions for the TV cable, throttle cable and a cruise control. I got the TV cable adjusted and it was pretty easy to do with this setup.



I got the RobbMc mini starter installed. I really like this starter. It was so easy to install because it is so small and so light. Very simple to rotate the solenoid anywhere you want it too. No shims were necessary. The lash is .016" and gear clearance when disengaged is 1/8".
All kinds of room vs a stock starter:

That starter does look nice! Looks like you can reach the oil pan bolts and the drain plug on the side of the block without removing it.
