Tim,

Huge thanks for the info and suggestion of the Macs Pivot. This thing is the best engine installing tool ever!

I have been a little lazy as of late and not posting while I have been working on the Nova. I'll catch you up..................................







Had to use a carb spacer to get the plumbing the way I wanted it.......



Just some detail........................



I went back to a mechanical fan for simplicity as well as lightening the electrical load. I purchased this fan from a member here. Making sure the 18" fan works in the shroud before I send it for power coating.

Looking really great Tim, and nice to see some progress pics since I was wondering how you've been making out with the upgrades and changes. I'll keep watching for some video when you get to sparking it up.

Hope you're having fun!!!

Graeme

That is a very clean install. I appreciate the attention to detail with wiring, hose routing, etc. Lots of guys don't pay attention to that stuff on modified cars.

Here is mine:
