    Your welcome. The block is a 5.0 H.O. roller motor out of a 90 mustang gt. The serpentine setup is pieced together from that car and various others.

    Looks real good (y)

    Will your hood close with that big ol' GM type distributer cap sticking up like that? Man, I forgot just how big those things were :)

    It's upside-down.

    Progress on your Maverick is a good feeling, isn't it?
