you're making some great progress!! Some observations you may want to look into. the heat shield doesn't look correct on the exhaust manifold. i believe the one on yours is for ealier setups. Also, the front pulleys look like they would be for an A/C car. non A/C got a larger water pump pulley and smaller crank pulley.

my original plan for my 79 TA was to make a w72 copy. that lasted for a year before i went a whole different direction with the 428... lol
