I really appreciate the comments,Cuda guy I think you are to far away I'm in louiseville but Imay be in your neck ofthe woods someday and would like to check your car out..Figuring out some under hood routing.Tried the tti exhaust today but the thorley reducers aren't even close.Bolted the mufflers to the reducers And will take to a muffler shop when she's running.Tomorrow I'm gonna start installing the interior And get some visual progress to keep my sanityHere are some more pics of my slow accomplishments .This stuff takes a lot of time money and beer.

[DAYLEY/CHALLENGER]

Looking good.  Don't it make you feel good when you actuallly see some results of your work?

[Stacked440]

hmm...I ordered a vintage air kit and it came with a similar Sanden compressor to what you show in your engine pic, but the hose attachments are on the back and not the top, and its longer...did they send me the wrong compressor?!

[mackschallenger]

no I got  the  bouichillon kit There is a lot of a lot of room around the sanden compressor.I screwed up on my hose lengthes But itwill work out fine .What are you using for an air cleaner ?

[Stacked440]

a standard dual snorkel 4-bbl one, it clears the compressor but not the float level screw on my Holley carb   So I need to do some modifications, If i don't like it I got a free Holley one when I bought the carb that I'm sure will fit, you having problems with air cleaner clearance?

Looking real real nice, and Kentucky Challenger got a nice ring to it don't it  I'd look into the Tri - Y headers from Sumacher Creative, they appear to be a perfect fit on any motor / car you may be working on and they are not quite as much as the TTI headers. I've used some of their other produts for modified (non stock) applications and I'll probably be buying a set of these headers for the 440 / Dart project. Your project is looking sweet and did ya know us Kentuck boys are also known as "Country gentlemen" ? Really, it's true.   

[mackschallenger]

Hey stacked I have a cheapo air cleaner I'm using for now and no clearance issues.Whitesatin I got Thorley headers on there.They fit pretty good Just had to dimple a little for steering box.The problem I'm having Is the tti thorley adapters That aren't even close to being right.Yeah I guess I'm Kinda a country gent but not sure my wife would agree.I really appreciate all the positive comments especially all of your cars I've seen here Look really sharp.terry
