Mopower,
What exhaust manifolds are you running? I see chrome elbows !!
#12
Imco Powerflows with stainless elbows and also stainless pipe to the stern. The outside pipes angle inward and the rubber hoses melted where the exhaust was blowing against it. With the stainless and the water from the exhaust you can touch the pipes anywhere , even after a hard run.

MOPOWER,
I forgot to complement you on the trick dash, jeezz, you fit every possible gauge in that dash! NICE JOB.
BTW, who made the white panels? Nice detail to the outside pinstrip too.

Thanks.
Bottom row is same as factory. Middle row has water pressure on the ends. . Top row is fuel pres. and oil temp.
Gotta keep a watch on the ponies
. Also if you look close at the engines I have mech. fuel pres and all stainless mech. water temp on each engine for a second opinion if necessary.
Somewhere I have a pic of the passenger side duplicated down to the 272 SR-1. The guy who did these seems to have fallen off the face of the earth. I know he was having health problems when he did mine and further problems later on

How much room do you have between the mirrors/hatch and your flame arrestors?
What Intake are you using on those 540's?
I want to use a Dart hp500 intake with holley 800cfm carbs atop the 454's I'm building. Thats if they flow correctly!
