Finally...all the little details done... now to move on to other things on the Post Wis. Conclave To Do list. Yes, it is an Austin-Healey 3 liter... just with a bit of an upgrade.

Short list of the engine upgrades:
As mentioned, engine is still 1963 Austin-Healey 3-liter, the head was done by Hap Waldrop at his race shop in N.C. (flowed, etc. etc.), Rocker Arms unlimited reprofiled the rockers, the cam was custom cut for the engine by Dema Elgin (Elgin Cams to maximize EFI... more than BJ8 but less than full-rally), light DWM flywheel, ProRace damper, balanced to with 1/2 gram, modified Kirk headers (ceramic coated inside and out), GM HEI distributor machined to fit,... and, of course, 6 injector custom fuel injection intake manifold, managed by a MegaSquirt ECU. The engine wasn't built as a race engine, just good all-around street. Hooked to a Toyota 5-speed (W58) to a 3.54 rear gear (original was 3.9), which makes for a nice package.

Very very nice though you probably won't make it through Concours ....
BTW I have a similar billet hydraulic fluid reservoir though mine is only two-chambered and you obviously have separated your front and rear brake circuits.

Yup Michael, I have a Wilwood dual master cylinder ... so 3 chambers, front, back and clutch and a balance bar for brake biasing.
Well, shucks you think the Concours judges would pick up and the few things I've done??
