Thanks Duane! you have helped motivate me watching your project! Was going to get all the steering wheel stuff done last night but then realized i didnt have the steering cable in the boat,,it was at work lol and there was no way to line up the rack behind the dask to make sure it cleared everything before i tightened it down,,,duh lol

Oh well at least i got the thermostat housing on along with the carb and the throttle cable bracket and spent a little time with the polish on the scoop!

You may end up kinda limited, looks like they are pretty close to the valve covers. Think Duane mentioned something about the same issue with those Lightning headers on his boat.

 

[Patchman]

They offer some blue ones! :smile30:
