Gorgeous! Fenderwell headers for a Slant A-body - might be a first?

BTW, Bonneville Speed Week is cancelled due to junky salt conditions. Might go for Sept 12-15 event if salt improves.

Four words: Master cylinder heat shield.

Slant on,

Lou

Install a 5 speed and you should pick up a few 10ths! :lol: :lol:

Wow, even if they don't pick up any they look awesome...nice job. Way cool.
The five speed suggestion sounds like a good one too!

Good luck
Derek

As always, your nuttier than the mad hatter! :D

Exquisite workmanship, which I've come to expect from anything you touch, and, like all other over the top endeavours you take on, I'd bet the farm it nets you measurable gains.

Bravo on your progress bringing your Valiant back to life! :bow:
