Is the aircleaner sticking up more from the 1" carb spacer or from the design of the aircleaner, itself? ... or is the Edelbrock intake significantly taller than a stock intake? Just curious, as I was thinking of going with an aftermarket intake when I go carb'ed on my '84 sometime, but dunno if I'll need to budget for a hood... 
Looks good! Where's the video?

Nah the aircleaner wouldnt clear my carb or distributor cause i had to buy a fancy air cleaner so it sits higher from the spacer and the aricleaner spacer. Maybe vid this weekend after i get her a bit tuned up. Still buttoning little things up like the dipstick and motor mounts.

Well i drove the car for the first time around the block tonight. Car feels strong. I havent driven a v-8 stang in 2 years. I diddnt really get on it i was just checking for leaks.. Idles a little high and runs a bit rich but i will address that tommorrow. It diddnt have a hood on it and a kid in a gto stopped dead in the road just to look at it as i was rolling by. I cant wait till tomorrow im Still smiling ear to ear.
Car is pretty much finished. Got a few little bugs but tommorrwit coming to work with me. Thats the ultimate test.

In just 10 years, I'll be old enough to drive!!!!
sure its just not the oil pulg? or did it rip out threads? if it did just re thread it while its in the car. i had to do it to my 88.
The stock one just turned and leaked. I bought a rubber one as a temporary fix till i can change the pan but i guess my car has other thoughts on that. Im going to try wrapping the piss out of the stock oil plug in teflon tape and see if it tempararily fixes it.

I had the same problem on my Canton 7qt pan. go to the local parts store and buy a slighlt oversized oil pan bolt plug. It will actuall say "oversized" on the package. It slowly threaded in and works great! no leaks

mine the head snapped off of
drilled it out and re threaded it very slowly so i got all the metal shavings out. then a bigger plug and we were good to go! that oil change only took 4 hours... 
new valve covers.. The Efi ones were causing pressure to build up in the engine and almost cooked it.
