Let me know if you need pictures of something, I'll be happy to share mine with you. My Vintage Air is in and working great.

Many thanks Bama and Buster. It's good to know I can call on you for advice and direction if needed. I've been thinking about where I want to mount the dryer and heater control valve and I'm pretty sure I'll mount them on the passenger side inner fender. Mounting the dryer near the core support will all but place it out of sight. I'm not quite ready to hook up AC lines yet but hopefully I will be soon. My next challenge will be mounting the core support, then the fenders and hood to check fit and clearance. I modified the core support in order to mount the radiator and give plenty room for the fan and shroud. Now I believe I'll need to modify the hood brace in order to close the hood.

I'm not familiar with that carb (had to look it up on duckduckgo to realize it was a carb); have you used those previously? Wondered what your reasoning was for using that one versus fill-in-the-blank.
Thanks! Doug
Good question Belair-o, yes I have ran a Quick Fuel carb before this one. I currently have a SS-850 on a BBC car (Pic below). I've ran just about all the popular brand carbs at one time or another. I personally like tuning the Quick Fuel carb over others. I especially like the fact that your not required to remove sight plugs to set float levels. I've never been a fan of spilling raw fuel on a hot engine.
