Yes it is hard to see the timing marks on the romac's without changing the color. Good work! Greg |

Going thru some parts I bought from Jim Cox. I have a set of Isky and Erson pushrods. The Erson pushrods are shorter. Anyone have any Erson catalog or a Cox parts list? Erson E917402. Need to know if the publish a length measurement. The Isky's say 9.953 length. Or would anyone have 1 of the old DC pushrod kits? I need 1 pushrod if I use my old DC set. The clown who stole my Lancer bent 2 and I have only found 1 new on since then. |

Good call Greg, Smiths is making one now and if it's correct I will get them to build a set. Here is the engine as of today. Intake has to come off to drill the Holley pattern. The intake has the early AFB pattern only.

Is your intake missing the carb mounting plate? |

The manifold is a fabricated intake based on a 59 aluminum one barrel. There is a large plenum welded to the outboard portion of the intake after cutting and welding. The length is between a Weiand and a hyperpack. Here are some more low res images. It was professionally welded using parts I have no idea where they came from. I think the idea was to retain carb heat but that was not functional. The manifold was drilled today for the Holley pattern and the carb is now mounted.

Terry, I was surprised it was so tight. A little sanding with a sanding wheel and it went of easy. Still using a bolt in the crank end. |
