Matt, thanks for posting those pics- I'm going to be starting on the plumbing for my 261 very soon and this is exactly how I want to do it... The PO of my truck had rebuilt the motor only 10k ago, but when I tore it down it had evidence of oil starvation at the rocker shafts and at the cam bearings. It's a full flow motor but someone had plumbed the filter with tiny bypass lines. I'm going to make sure it's done right this time.
How in the world did you replicate that exhaust manifold? It is beautiful...I don't understand how the second outlet was fabricated- can you elaborate?
Thanks, Dave.
