Started tearing down... figure I'll post the pics as I go here. Any help identifying the mods/parts here would be appreciated as I acknowledge my newb status.

Pics from this afternoon... plan is to drop engine on an evening after work this week, order parts for delivery before Friday and and to attack for re-assembly 1 week from today. Fairly aggressive timeline so probably more like 3 weeks to restart realistically.

SSI Exchangers removed, needing a clean up from the oil leaker above


Wiring for carb swap


View from the bottom after an hour or so of cleaning/wiping


Exhaust ports measure about 34-35mm


Turbo valve covers?


The SSI exchangers weren't described in the sale. Seller stated simply "This car has everything that Bruce Anderson describes in his book for modifications"...
