20 hours + & no reply. Wow.

How about it?

Someone is bound to extol the virtues of Autolite but I have older Champs on the shelf. Newer Champs do NOT have the same reputation.

Ceramic coat the exhaust manifolds. They do the inside as well as the outside so it will make a huge diff. in heat as well as make them look great!
It will, however make the rest of the exhaust warmer so some exhaust wrap could be in order. You have learned that these cars are stupid hot?

My engine has been red for decades, might go back to Black. Kind of on the fence...

I have figured out most of the hardware. ready to torque things

Searching the web for photos today. I took several photos of the water manifold hardware but I have nothing (as does the shop manual) of which head bolts go where.
Ditto for which side the temp sender goes, various plugs & fittings... Maybe ya'll can provide some links or photos? I did not expect this engine to be apart for 13 months...

A fresh engine will start around 5K, how much you can do yourself will affect price. To drop off the car & pick it up with the engine restored these days would likely start at 10K. And most of those jobs will require remediation.

Modern counterfeit brake switches are documented ad nauseam. Old stock or Harley switch.

Am interested in how faithful a repro these are.

Looks pretty good!

This site has been really quiet. Who is planning to attend and will any of the vendors be there?

Are correct foam cushions available? I am headed this way in the future as well.

After having gone through my fair share of Eaton pumps, I do not believe what is pictured is a factory washer.
Be careful with the new seal kit, they include top seals that will block the cover vent, creating a new vent where the front seal is!

Looking around, thanks!
