Thanks Clem. I appreciate the support you gave in an earlier post. It helps keep me motivated by the tremendous support on this forum. I would really like to come to your event in October with Rian and Martin but I don't think I will be able to make it this year. Hopefully when my truck is done maybe I can make it.

Keep up the progress. Looks great. Best of all your learning from the mistakes. There are a lot of people that don't have the ability to. They put the blame on other things.

You are spot on about the hurrying. I feel like I am trying to disarm a bomb and only have a few seconds left before it goes off. Plus after all the runs I was a little gun shy. But I setup a big cardboard against the wall to check the flow of paint and spray pattern. I also heated the truck up with the 2 big halogen lights I have and warmed the paint, hardener, and reducer in the kitchen sink in warm water for about 30 minutes. As you said to make a mistake is human to make it twice well....

Thanks TJ. Still waiting to see your 292 come together. I forgot to post it but I found a picture on facebook of a guy that put a 6-71 blower on his inline six. Was going to post it in your thread but can't find it now. Not sure what kind of an intake he was using it. At first I thought it was yours because it looked almost identical and then I saw the timing chain cover and it didn't have the detail you put on yours.
