Really nice work!
Where did you get that timing cover?
Looks like it says grp on it. Not the rod company I assume.

It's made by John Gunter here in Maryland. They were being sold by Butler but no longer. He does cnc machining. Gunter Racing Products maybe? It is a combination front motor plate and timing cover that accepts a SBC water pump.

Wiper motor is completely out of the way of everything now. No need to. Thanks for the suggestion though.

It's a custom piece. Never seen them offer something like that. Pic of wiper motor for clarity. Not even close to being in the way of anything.
