Paintworks, I have a question about the 226 engine. (I have one also in my F2)
What is the feature coming up from the center of the cylinder head? Is that a coolant line? I haven't seen anything attached there before.

I have one question though, what's the line running from the head stud just in front of the air cleaner bracket (appears to go toward the right fender)? I have the same stud and nut on mine but there was no line attached.
OK, I'll make it three. What the heck is it? I don't have anything like it on my 226 either and have never seen one before in any pics.

I don't see any bolts at the edges of the floor next to the side panels, how did you fasten the edge?

How wide were the wood planks? When I disassembled mine (what was left of them) they were close to 7 5/8" wide.
