I named my catfish Camaro Christine because of difficult she can be trying to restore ( I’ve been trying to get a certain bellhousing that I need for almost 5 years now and every time it comes in stock and I go to hit purchase it sells out within in 15 seconds )

One thing I learned on header gaskets. Match them to the headers, not the heads. don't feel bad about that Winters intake cracking, They were not the greatest alloy to begin with. If needed, we can ask the local hospital to station an ambulance outside your shop for those accidents.

Great to see an hour and a half of you James And Caroline. James I hope you heal up quickly and Caroline i hope that you are ok. Hey when installing an intake build up the China walls with the RTV and chuck those rubber gaskets and the cork ones, they blow out over time.

I have a set of headers I got with a 383 I traded a guy for and there for my 64 Dodge 440 2 door hardtop and I’ve heard that they are not fun to install with power steering and torsion bars with an automatic. That slip that Caroline had was tough to watch and I’ve done the same thing so I know it hurt bad. Glad she’s alright.

FYI They make a copper gasket for round tube headers going on to a square port head. They work pretty good as far as making sure nothing leaks but the flow still doesn't match 100% but that isn't a huge deal

I had a 67 big block 4 speed chevelle that was that turquoise color and I bought it from a guy who bought the car but he said it was more car then he wanted and he said the guy he got it from rebuilt the engine so the car had a solid lift cam in it and I thought that was kind of funny and then I realized it had rectangular port heads on it and I thought let me run the numbers on the block and it ended up being a L88 427 not a 396 I was happy as a kid at Christmas getting his favorite bike. The car was wicked fast and I was wondering why it had a tach drive distributor on it had a m22 Muncie with a Hurst competition shifter with the reverse lock out the car had a set of lakewood later bars on it with 456 gears in the factory 12 bolt rear-end. The car was pretty fast I almost felt bad talking the guy down on the price as much as I did he wanted $2.800 for the car and I got him down to $2.200 that was a good car.i never did find out where the 427 came from. I guess the original owner must have blown up the 396.

Is that battery smaller than a typical battery? If so doesn't that kind of limit what you can replace it with based on the size of the box you made?

The battery will be with the car the rest of its life. Or a lot of luck that you will find another same size battery. I would rather make it a little bigger than the battery. So then maybe a person would have options

How long did that take to figure out that you were going to have to take the bolts out of motor mounts. They are only as hard as someone makes it. And you have a lift. Try to put headers without the lift. Seems to me that you have it nice. Shouldn't be a problem.
