Fantastic. When I suggested plug wires and fuel lines, I didn't dream you would go this far.

I am definitely out of my comfort zone with this one. 
Building the chassis was easier for me.

Rick just to make it as difficult as possible you should place all the plug wires in the correct firing order.
Yea I know where I can put that idea.

I used to use a hot pin to make the holes, and wire from a door bell ringer for the wiring and fuel lines,etc.

I used a special performance firing order Eddie......1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8.
Mark, I used specialty aftermarket parts, a sensitive feed drill chuck and a milling machine. That's why I'm so darn slow with my builds.
