L78 Project Pics
 
Here's some before and after pics of the engine compartment in my L78 Camaro, which I'm detailing for my latest project.

My goal is to have a nice looking original engine while minimizing downtime -- this is a 'driver' after all.

I had to find a carb (thanks Eric), smog system (thanks Jerry), and NOS block heater (thanks mr70). Lots and lots of other little details that I wouldn't even know about without reference pics from members here (thanks jeff and paul).

(Let me know if something grossly wrong jumps out at you)

A pair of original looking horns would be nice. Earl

I know, there's still stuff to do.

Parts I collected up front:

You can see my $300 Craigslist swamp cooler in the background.
