What kind of filters are those? Special velocity stacks?

I'm going to have some clearance issues up top with the 2275 in the '52. These may work. Can you source another set?

The air filters are K&N and the stacks are made to hold them. I bet the stock Dell stacks could be modified with some TIG welding skills.

Right now it is covered with 3+ years of dust. It will need days of detailing to get it back in shape. When I get it out and cleaned up, I will post some pix.

I had a couple of hours today so I made the rest of my hoses for oil,fuel and breather. Then hung the exhaust. Still need to wire it and I have a list of other things I need to do to the rest of the car.

I replaced the trailing arm bushings and added some length to the slots in the adjustable spring plates so i can get to 0 toe. I installed the left cup brace segment but will have to cut and re-weld the lower/aft tab for the right side. It fit with the dummy engine but the stroker engine has the exhaust too close to the down rod on that side. I think I will have to drop the exhaust to cut the tab free. Put it back up to tack it, then pull it back down to finish the welds.

My new shift light came yesterday. Added it to my list of things to do before I get back on the road.
