You've got to leave the body off of this car Ken. All those parts are too nice and interesting to cover up.
How is your Wife's healing and therapy coming?

Ken nice to see the pics you posted. I can attest it looks better in person. Very well thought out and nice fabrication. I love the red chasis, I didn't think to look under it when I was there. Ken keep the pics coming, and next time you find your way to wine country, give me a call. Steve." "No matter where you go, there you are!" Steve.

I have been working on the front of the frame, installing two air passages threw the frame for cooling. On the passenger side the air conditioning lines and heater lines will be inside the frame and on the drivers side the fuel lines will be in there, the main feed line and the return line. I want to keep all these lines as cool as possible. The air will go in threw the grille insert go threw the frame and exit in the rear of the car on the gas tank. I may build a heat sink in the frame for the fuel system, I'm not sure I want to go that for yet.

Finally getting the front cross member finished, 90 hours, some things take longer than others
Along with that we made these valve cover adapters, putting the early style covers on a LS 7. It uses the factory O ring on the head side and the early gasket on the valve cover side. I'm going to put the short valve covers on it to see if it looks better than the tall ones. One thing we did on the adapters is machine these bosses into it where the early style gaskets go. This way ever thing lines up automatically when you put the gasket on.

Ken, did you save the program for the valve cover adapters? Someone else might want to do a similar thing. The LS motors have terrible ugly valve covers and can use the improvement!
