Yeah, it's been a while since the last update on the ol' Incredible Bulk that is the Catalina so forgive me.  I've got tons of new goodies and picture updates for you all.

This weekend, my girlfriend and I bit the bullet and dove into the intake manifold swap.  Along the way, we cleaned, scrubbed and got really smelly with solvents and weird existing odors contained under the manifold of the 455.  If you're anything like me, you've already become bored with words and just want to see some pretty, pretty pictures.  So I won't disappoint you here, enjoy the weekend labor we did.

As a special note, the steering wheel is a Grant unit meant for a GTO or whatever.  I really don't care what it was meant for originally, it was going on the car.  In fact, my girlfriend grabbed it off of the wall at the local speed shop and stated, "We're not leaving without this."  Happy early birthday to me and the Incredible Bulk. :)

Next weekend will be some more action.  Not so much flash though, the fuel tank is being dropped and some more cleaning will occur.  Stay tuned!
