I will try to get down to the pen it is stored in and take pics. But I am pretty sure it has 2 gas doors, because I planned on using it.

too bad you didn't live in the states, I know a really good transmission guy, and he has a 77 truck as well......but shipping to there and back would cost mucho $$$$$$$$$$$$

12 weeks is quite some time just for machine work. Must have a hard time finding lava rocks hard enough to hone that 440 block.
really though that does seem long but if their putting the engine together also that may be about right. At least that will give you plenty of time to detail that engine bay.

Speaking of Danny, have you any of guys ever gotten ahold of him by phone. Ive emailed him, but can never get my order right, or he wont get back to me. I probably have to wait for the mopar nationals and talk to him there.
