Lorbiecki:
The construction is not only chassis stuff but also engine parts. Because of a tall block I acquired as well as a stock height stack injection, I needed to do something with the mag. So, I designed a new timing chain cover and made a drive for the mag and pump off the front. I used a Super Mag II and a belt I had from a previous offset drive. Designed it in Solidworks and I be damned if it didn't all fit the first time!

Also there are photos of the Oberg look alike housing- blew up the cast unit and made a billet one.

Also, initially I was going to run a front distributor drive with a crank trigger. This was before the mag was decided on. This setup will go on my RED (BBC 496).....

What isn't shown yet are the fabricated valve covers and the billet rail pan.

Like the oberg(look alike).  I would like to do something simular except with finned covers to aid oil cooling. Running brackets with dry block and any cooiling will help. Nice work.
