no casting on the heads anywhere.
the square stock is an adaptor. the bellhousing is bb to a833, but the tranny is a t18 granny 4 speed out of a 65 jeep gladiator. the input shaft is 2" longer than the a833 so i put in a 2" bracket spacer. the holes didnt line up anyway. they do now. fits perfect. the only bad part is i couldnt find a pilot bearing to fit the combo, so i used a very thin piece of 3/4" copper coupling. ya know, water pipe.

very clever dinner. appetizing food fit neatly into interesting round pie.

the top hose hooks up behind the bulky part of the high rise, and the fan, well, engine enamel. it has stainless blades. i stripped them with gasoline before the paint cures then i threw it in the oven at 400 degrees. the wife was pissed. haha

It's more than just a water pump housing switch.

it will need the holes in the ends of the heads pluged

then there is the chance of it not flowing water like it should thru the heads

I like the odd look of the thing myself

I know where I can get one and think I will grab it for the next truck build myself
