Custom built one at a time. It is really nice looking, thanks Gary!!

He sent me pictures of the bellhousing with the dual coolers and trans cooler. Awesome - nice and compact.

Never been asked..they know

Nope, the engine should be here within a couple weeks and the Konrad should be ready in three weeks. Thye have to machine the adapter plate and assemble the Ace from the 540with the steering and nose cone lower.

I would anticipate starting the install in late January/early Feb.

Fuel system is sorted out and will be in this weekend. Upgrading to a GPS (120 MPH) speedo, mechanical oil pressure and possibly O2 Meter. All my gauge wiring and hoses are going to be redone and i am repairing a leaking o-ring on my steering helm unit.
