The temp gauge line leaning on the driver side header like that is that safe because the header is coated or?

Thanks Chris. :thumbsup: I bought the motor about 10yrs. ago complete but disassembled, had never been fired. :cool:

I assembled it with pump gas friendly 2465 pistons and a mild ;) solid roller. The heads are virgin 990's (0 port/polish work).

Link, to previous post. http://www.chevelles.com/forums/showpost.php?p=2060117&postcount=19

I believe there may be a little more in it with a little massaging on the exhaust port.

Thanks George. I was running a AirGap, and the aircleaner rubbed the top of the hood a bit, even with a drop base aircleaner, and 3" filter. I have my eye on Vic Jr's, just worried about it being tight. My car seemed to pick-up a couple of MPH at the track when I removed the aircleaner, I think running a 1" aircleaner and drop base cant be helping things, but you need to do what you need to do.
