Man that is a sweet car , detail is awesome . Just asking if you have a better photo of throttle cable mount at carb ? I am trying to fab a new one for my B-body . Stock cable seems too short for my mount & will not open completely with dominator . Thanks for posting your car , Gary Here you go.

That is one very well engineered stick car. Got any pics of the clutch linkage ? Is it still off the firewall or is it a pivot style on the floor like a Bickel pro-stock deal? Thanks for sharing your build. Gus

Gus, the clutch linkage is stock, except it uses hiem joints.

Yeah it makes all the difference in the world when you can remove all the play in the clutch and shifter links with heim joints. Gus

It still has room for groceries!
This car raises the bar WAY up there on quality and detail, but the best part is the builder remains very humble about his capabilities and is very quick to give others credit for the Hundreds of great ideas displayed.

I am using a stock pedal assembly. The throttle bracket was made by a friend of mine. I drew it up, and made it out of thin plywood first. It acts as a safety plate for a Dominator, holds the fuel regulator, and throttle cable, all in one.

what [stainless ?] bolts are you using on your engine, and what manufacturer are they ? i intend to paint the replacement 446 for my charger the same color turquoise, and use bolts like you are using. Almost every bolt on the engine is from ARP. I just measure what I need and order accordingly. It sucks when you need 6 bolts, and they come in packs of 5, but that is what it takes sometimes.
