I will be relacing em with nutcerts but, this is a proof of concept.
Big photo dump from the past week or so
Had to modify the radiator to get room for the air filter on turbo. Also added vac line port to elbow.

No more coil of copper, proper backpressure damper cylinder

Painful purchase but MLS gaskets are the best

While I was waiting for heads, have been experimenting with manifold heat management

And the heads, machine shop found some lovely gems from the previous owner of these heads

But both heads resurfaced, 0.007 off both to clean up

Its hard to see but the bolt/head stud holes were reamed out, and then sleeved so the port breakthru didn't suck oil down from top of head

Heads on, rockers & guides setup, intake bolted down

Looks great. You've been busy. Is the intake actually touching the cowl or optical illusion?
the elbow i traded him is, I told him to stop being a baby and trim the cowl so it fits. he doesn't need muchQuote:
