No. This is a custom piece, made by a local fabricator,here in Ontario.
Wasn't cheap. But, this thinng is quality.

Thanks forthe compliments, guys.

Only question I have Jeff...is why the breather on the VC? I wonder if you're going to experience unmetered air issues?

I have no spout connection coming from my TB. I've opted for this as a replacement. We'll see....

Nice work Jeff! What was your secret to your a/c lines? are they polished or chromed?

I polished the lines. They are now in need of another polishing. However, when they're done, they look great. Polish up really nicely.

I just got in from doing a bit of work on the car, again. I'll post pics later. I installed the spark plug wire dividers. An awesome billet piece that turned out better than I thought. I still have to custom cut my new wires and paint the distributor cap and hold downs.
I'll be installing my aluminum driveshaft tonight, as well as the steeda firewall adjuster and quadrant....That should be fun. LOL

I pick up my radiator tomorrow, too. My original thought of having the majority of it done in 2 weeks is still looking good

Just for the hell of it, I 'dry fit' all of my stainless stuff onto the front of the car.......Dayummm......Am I ever pumped to get this thing done.

As promised....Progress from today.

By the way...I'm in the middle of custom cutting my wires. Not getting a whole lot of spark for some reason.
No rad yet either.

I've had them for months, now. Never took the time to put them on.

That's funny! That's the technical terminology. I figured, if I put that down in my post, nobody would understand what it was. LOL. Thanks Dave.

Well...Last night, I was up 'til about 12:30 reinstalling the new black wire loom, custom cutting the spark plg wires, polishing/installing the billet dipstick puller, mounting my MSD box, cleaning and painting my rotor hubs. A few hours left on it, still. However, like I said, bit by bit, it's coming along.
Keep in mind I still have few 'non-green' parts to paint green (distributor cover, smooth wiper cowl etc...)
