well, i think i am done drilling holes in the block now! LOL

i drilled it out for, plug wires, heater hoses, waterpump bypass hose, vacuum lines for the valve cover breathers, one goes to the carb, and the other to the air cleaner, i drilled the vac line for the brake booster as well.....maybe a little too much, but i always go overboard with engine detail........

oh, i almost forgot, i have to drill out the carb for vac lines, and the fuel pump as well!!.....ooops almost missed them!

its almost time to shoot some paint on it.....

stay tuned, pics coming.

Well, one of our friends answer to everything is Vodka. Don't know that Vodka would help the building or not but with enough you could probably dream up some wild cars ! : )

Bryan, that is why I said one of our friends solution to everything is Vodka. I, like you am also a non drinker. have been for all of my 61 years on planet earth.
