Vacuum Take Off and Valves

Picked up the valves today from the Machine shop. 30deg backcut to spec. Look much better tan the stockers. I will post a picture when I sort out the camera situation. Cell pictures just don't cut it.
STD Left, Backcut Right

I also picked up a pair of vacuum take offs from ebay for dirt cheap.

I created a new switch panel from a nice sheet of 1/8" aluminum. I'll have to swap the old gauge panel back in, and sort out something for a tach. I can see why people just remove the stock Spit dash and run a flat piece of alloy across with their own assortment of holes to suit their gauges and switches. Again pictures to follow.

Need to add blower fan motor to the list of parts to acquire.
