Is that the big box in the photo? It looks like it only has 3 chain primaries?

That is an interesting intake manifold....it looks like a carb intakeor the earlier intake that was on the D jet triumph motors but with a modified intake. Also curious what you are running for fuel injection.

Yeah, that's a weird mashup. I like the early valve cover to go w/ the four speed, but the later block. I kinda want to do that that to build a 2.1 NA 99.
Looks like fun, but I could build a half a dozen better cars for 70K.
