The fuel pump button allows me to push the button to fill the fuel sample cup, and is within reach of the fuel sample valve. No leaving the pump running to go thru fuel check.

Good choice on the carb! Those folks have been wonderful to deal with on our cars. Keep up the pics! I enjoy the progress.

Sean,

got ya covered.

*Momentary toggle on - off - on. Works either way

*RacePac fuel pressure sensor

*Aeromotive sampling valve

*Wiring runs for fuel pump toggle, pressure sensor, temp sender, water pump & fan.

In case the 3.5" x 54" Aluminum driveshaft pitches it's self out of the truck we have evidence of it installed :)

I like the "bolt on" Strange yoke, having installed one in several buildups.

Also, We have seen comments about CMD anti-seize lube. The last set of Callies rods I bought included a small tube of CMD in the box. Callies recommends it on the rod bolts. Later I bought some larger tubes and have used it in the correct places, example, with the u-joint caps shown here.

CMD lube = good stuff

Some minor catch up notes. The last few days have brought several completion items.

*Fuel system plumbing finished
*Brake system finished
*Rear axle assemble finished
*Engine finished
*Transmission finished
*Driveshaft installed
*Shifter installed
*RacePak roughed in
*Most wiring roughed in and terminated on at least one end
*Gauges finished

Re: Woodfin's SS GT/TB construction series
 

a few more catch up notes;

photo # 191 junction on front motor plate.

*fuel pump momentary for fuel check
*water pump
*fan

This allows wiring to be dis-connected as needed.

Photos #192 & 193 show how the wiring "will not look" in a few days. It will all be bundled and finalized right away.

I have the same fuel sample valve on the Mustang...nice piece.

Re: Woodfin's SS GT/TB construction series
 

Looks great Larry. Cant wait to see it in person at the Motorplex soon!

Will try not to drool all over it!

I have junction strips like the one you are using on your motor plate in my Mustang, but they are in the cockpit. Each one of those connections represents an exposed hot wire in an area that could get splattered with liquid like water or....gasoline! Having toasted all my wiring in an engine fire, I would recommend fabricating a cover of some sort for that.

Are those circuits fused? If not, perhaps fabricate an insulated strip with a string of Bussman circuit breakers on it to replace the connection strip. That would protect your equipment and help prevent a short while still providing the convenience of being able to disconnect something at the turn of a nut.
