Nice! Always good when you get more than 1 HP per cubic inch.

Final coat of blue is finished up, and nabbed some nice Edelbrock valve covers for this build. Next up - clean up the pulleys and brackets and get them painted. Have decided to go with an Edelbrock AVS2 carb - just gotta dig one up now. In the meanwhile - I really need to get back on the bodywork!

Lovin the blue paint Scott. :beer:
Years ago when I had a 318 in my F-body Road runner I painted it corporate blue.

I'm glad that you decided to go with the AVS2 carb....you won't be disappointed.

Not as much progress as I had hoped this year, but am getting a little done. I replaced my driver's side outer rocker a long time ago, but had not finished up all the welding on it. So I managed to get that all finished up this month and it is ready for a little filler and some primer. Please excuse my goober welds - I am getting very proficient with the grinder!

Getting some bonus work in this Fall - temps in the 60s today! Finished up the bodywork on the drivers rocker and got some primer on it.

Excellent work Scott!
I assume you put some sort of protection on the inside of the rockers?

Yes, Eastwood makes a rust encapsulator spray can that comes with an 18" flexible spray hose. You run the hose into your frame rails or rockers or wherever, and slowly remove the hose as you spray. Pretty slick!

That does sound pretty slick - I'll have to look into that product.

Yup. The Eastwood spray works pretty good. I’ve been using it in my rockers, windshield frames and in the bracing that attached to the rear wheelwells. I attached a thin wood dowel to the hose to make it more rigid. After spraying some, I remove the cap with the hose on it and attach it to a can of metal prep spray to clean the hose and nozzle out. Works great.
