The framework for the dash panel has brackets welded on both sides. I think that makes a great place to mount a throttle control.

Haven't had a lot of time to spend on this, but pleased with the progress.

Planning on a 90 degree brass elbow in the radiator drain attached to a ball valve, with a hose attached for draining the coolant. I hate slow messy petcocks. Also plan to run the top overflow hose from the recovery tank to a secondary catch can, just to make certain I don't have any coolant spills.

That engine test stand is turning out pretty slick!

It is ugly as sin; but I don't think the ugliness will affect performance.
