Well I got the tune on the car done for now. I have a small blip in the fuel delivery over 6000 RPM, so not going to push it until I get that fixed. I have an area of my fuel delivery where I use a Y block with a -8 AN feed to 2 -6 AN lines running to my fuel rails. I'll be replacing this with a new y block and -8 AN all the way to the fuel rails. I ended up at 576 RWHP and 510 Max Torque. Once I fix the fuel line I'll be taking it back to the tuner for a quick retune and new larger injectors. My duty cycle was higher than I anticipated. I'll get them from him and replace them prior to the tune. The new tune should just be for the new injectors and adding 2 more degrees of timing to put me over the 600 mark.

Here's where I'm at on the final assembly, I've cut down the front quick jack posts from this pic to bring them closer to the body and a friend is coming over tomorrow to help install the windshield

Well I'm legal. Title in hand and plates on the car. I hope to put some local miles on it this weekend and have it at our club meeting next week. Let the traveling begin.

Really a nice build, well done. Quite a bit of extra work stuffing that supercharger and associated plumbing but it's really clean. I too like the color combination as well. Sort of Gulf Oil Meets Marvel.

that looks SOOOO awesome! Is that the breeze radiator cowl?

No, I built my own radiator fan shroud by hand along with the cowl. All the metal work in the whole engine compartment was hand cut and formed by me. I typically used poster board to get my first fit and trim around everything. I then transferred the outline to aluminum sheeting and then cut it out and formed it in a metal break if needed. I used a 1/4" angle iron mounted to the top cross bar. This was set in place using riv-nuts . I had 2 equally spaced flat stock weld evenly at 90 degree angles to the angle iron. There are 10-24 button heads at each end of the flat stock securing the cowl. The front that goes up against the body has body molding on it so it doesn't rattle. Hope this helps.
