I broke down the 6 and primed it. I also decided to make my own headers and I'll build my own intake as well.   (sorry about the blur, camera batteries are on the low side)  I've also fitted the power steering unit from the 440 on this motor. Jerry |

It is going to be interesting to see how your header, and intake come out. This is going to be a cool set up with that 6cyl.

OK, after 3 sets of pipes turning into a flop, the 4th set are a pair of shorts. This pic being a trial fit, you can see the power steering pump is in as well.  Now to hook them up to the pipes. but I got an idea. I was thinking a set of bigger Webers, Hmmm. It's getting there, slowly now. But , it's getting there! Jerry |

Another update Just need to do some touch up and the Super Six Pack done.  It's a bit touch-n-go putting the body on but I had to rest it, (I just wanted to see it with the front-end around it).  OK, so I got a bit carried away!  So we all get a sneak peek!  Painted the exhaust and have to put that on yet. Not sure if I'm going to put on the door handles or not. It's getting close! Jerry |
