I like what you've done with the valve cover. I need to do that on the Z22 cover for my Volvo...

 

 

Funny, lt only looks like that because I had to strip the wrinkle pant off to redo it

I thought perhaps you had shaved/smoothed it a bit? 

 

And if you fancy following along with mine, which will likely not be as nice...  ?

When I first installed the Weber I used a 1.75" tall adapter with plans to have a bulge in the hood to clear the air cleaner.

Then recently decided to modify the stud location and port openings on the intake to bolt the carb on without any adapter

Then time to rethink how my throttle cable was routed at the pedal. Anybody else hoard brackets? I can't throw out anything without first harvesting all the hardware and brackets off it.

Flat screen mounts to the rescue, Cut, weld, grind.

Still need to weld on brake hose tabs. Nothing at the top is adjustable, just used spare collars for the top spring perch. I have know ideal what springs I will end up running, these are some 12" 200 lbs to get me started putting things together.

No consideration given to a smaller diameter tire?  😁

Current thought is to start out running 195/60/14. Wanted to make room now so I would have room for options in the future. 

Without springs I may be cycling the suspension at limits I will never reach without air bags which is a thought I'm open to down the road.

Also I have no idea what my caster is at the moment. I'm working with LCA in it's relaxed position.
