Yep 318 still in it, no point dropping in the stroker at this point.

All ready to go, then my usual pre Nats curse kicked in, clutch started making some horrible rattling noises when I pulled it out of the workshop, suspect the centre plate has started falling to bits

Sod it, I'll take an easy ride up and if it falls apart I'll be getting recovered....

I have a new 10.5" clutch ready to fit, but I'm pretty sure it's a 10" in there, so flywheel and bellhousing to change + whatever other problems you find. If it was a straight swap I'd be doing it tonight.

nice one John, I cut up a recycling box to reproduce the blanking plates for cam bolt access holes in the inner fender … well they are ‘recycling’ boxes right??

This car looked great at the mopars, I really like the way you've finished everything off. It was very trick.
