There is a small 100 shot going on the car as well. The 225 is forged internals and 2750miles on the rebuild. Should be fun. 3.90 gear in the rear with a soft locker.

Nice work! And your engine pic answered a question I'd been wondering about for a while now – will the Aussie intake fit with power brakes?

Looks like it will limit air cleaner choices, though... :)

Thanks for sharing!

Corection the Intake WILL fit but the carb will need an Offset spacer. Its only a 1/2 inch . But the internal debate I am having Spacer vs Manual conversion has been a long one. And really I have a CNC to build the spacer. But is the spacer a shortcut or bla bla bla.

Your opinions are definatly welcome on this topic.

O Ya and for the record Mark at AssieSpeed has been GREAT to deal with. Very fast shipping.

I don't have access to a CNC, but at least one company makes an offset master cylinder spacer for Hemi conversions that moves the MC outwards (I've never been able to find out how much, but certainly a 1/2 inch?). That's all assuming the the point of interference is the master cylinder...
