I wrote that in the op. Yes everything is power including the rear glass. The side windows were work but when finished she'll be one of the only ones I've seen with this.

Here's the remote oil filter. It is full flow filtering not bypass. That was a whole mother can of worms.

I hope the 348/409 water pump cools better than the one we tride on the stock cat back in the 60s. We ran one for several races, but went back to the stock ones. The pump just couldn't cool it well enough. However on a street engine the do work, so I'm told??

I have no reason to believe it won't work. It's a high volume pump and the system is pressurized like any other engine. If it tries to run hot I'll add cooling lines to the rear of the motor.

Not yet. Still getting all of the plumbing sorted. And I need at least some exhaust on it. Maybe this week or the next, but I've been saying that for 2 months.
