I've heard great reviews from teams running a Holley hydramat. At least in fuel cell applications, if it starts sputtering, your tank is EMPTY!

Parts arrived! Some still missing like piston rings. 0.30 over size was the choice for new pistons. Next week block finalization. It had some โdirtโ in rear part of cooling channels..

Nothing excotic on pistons. Just basic good stuff.

Adjustable timing chain kit with dual chain. Maybe even too strong for this application.

Got an answer: โThe finish of this transmission body is aluminum. It can be soda blasted or cleaned and painted with high-quality aluminum-color paint or left natural. The transmission pan is natural steel and the bolts are black phosphate. The inspection cover is also natural.โ - so, clear coat it is! ๐ช

Gearbox ready for installation. I would need a bit help - unfortunately the gearbox cooling lines were destroyed. Where I could find dimensions? Purpose would be to get the car back on streets in Easter - so delivery would take too long. I could manufacture the lines locally, if I would know the lenght. Any advice more than appreciated.
