Dad asked me to post this because he's very tired but wanted to let you guys see what he has been working on since the camping trip on Sunday! He also said Subaru's are girl's engines  T1

Yeah, but who's driving it? Webster Papadopoulos?!  shocked

There has to be next to no room from the trans tunnel for your feet. It's bad enough with a stock tunnel.

It speena while...Is that a BBC or SBC in there? Valve covers look like a BBC, but I could be mistaken.

Looks like a set of 327 flags on the side. If the engine is set in low enough the tunnel isn't a problem. I saw a V8 bug a couple of years ago that ran a 427 and foot space wasn't a problem at all.
