Outstanding work on the entire fuel system Tim, I also like the color you added helps bring things to life.

Outstanding work on those cylinder heads Francis, I really like the milled area for the bolt heads that's a nice little detail. -
Great work on that fuel regulator Tim, that part is really small.
-
Nice start on your pro mod chassis, soldered brass tubing always looks good and is very strong, I will be watching this build.
-
Nice work on the dry sump tank Tim, I like the parts I machine until I post them here they never look great after you blow them up in the pictures you see all the flaws that you can't spot at normal size.
-
Great work on those very tiny fuel pumps, they should look even better with some color on them.
-
Oh this will be interesting, I will be following along.
-
Well done the paint and decals came out real good, nice finish.

Awesome update Francis, the detail on that engine block is amazing, the best one you have done so far. Wow 100 hours into this engine and well worth it in my opinion. The work you have done should inspire others to give this a try, it did with me. -
You have a very cool build going, never would have thought of using a Studebaker as a gasser.
-
Thanks for your comment of encouragement Francis I am glad you checked in.

I agree with Tom nice work on those very old decals. -
Time for a small update, first pic is the valley pan which will go under the intake manifold and the second pic is it installed on the engine block, got a nice slip fit with zero play. All comments welcome.

Nice work on those fuel pump parts, always a pleasure to see an update from you. I am glad you got a decent report from your doctor, I hope all goes well with you.

Looking really good. -
Don't see a cutlass gasser to often, looking really good so far.

Thanks for your comments Andrew, no offence taken, ask all the question you want, I read all comments I get and try to answer to the best of my ability.

Bill that's some really good info on the magneto, nice pics to.

Thanks a lot for you comment and encouragement Francis, I may very well have set my goals to high with this piece but that's ok, I am having a good time trying to figure out the process to get a positive outcome. No matter if I fail or not I will have learned a lot and had a good time doing it, isn't that what modeling is all about? My best hope for this project is getting a finished part that looks decent even if it's not perfect. I still have much to learn but I will keep at it. The way people are treated on this forum is the reason I keep coming back it always has a very positive vibe.
