Rolling change....

I wasn't happy with the fitment of the Classic Dash, 7" Holley dash mount from day one. Especially with how close to the driver and vertically mounted it was.

Switched to a Reversion Raceworks dash mount, which orients the Holley dash in a more canted manner, much better viewability. It also moves the display 5" further into the dashboard. Allowing the OEM instrument panel bezel to be used.

We're really stretching the term OEM+, but here we are. It helps things look a bit more factory.

Alright, GM D510C coils, LSAvalve covers and catch can are on.

Now to focus on that pesky AC manifold, get this thing vacuumed down and charged. We're beyond the point of needing air conditioning in the Heartland.

In the lines of our OEM+ mantra...I'll allow it on the dash, 400% better than the Holley nonsense.

Yeah, the '49 won't be getting driven much for the next 3 months, unless its early AM or dark...one of these days I'll pull the front wrap and start on the AC.

That's where I'm at. Wife wanted to drive this to LMC yesterday. No thank you. It was HOT.

It doesn't help we're already at 90 degrees for the day.

I'm not sure I want this to be a cool weather driver. Definitely more enjoyable to drive year round.

Mate, that looks 100% better. That other bezel looked real tacky.
