Spare parts single 318 turbo build
Got the intake cleaned up and bolted up the the heads. Had to scrounge for hardware but found enough. I was going to use some really nice vintage mickey thompson valve covers bit honestly they were waaayyy too nice for this motor, so I cleaned up the 20 layers of paint off of a set of chrome edelbrock covers that I use for painting cylinder heads. They've got some surface rust but cleaned up decent with steel wool.
I've got to switch timing covers to a later cover to have readable timing marks since this water pump exits the wrong way
