All it needs now is painting,hangers and clamps. Do I leave 'em staggered or do I extend the lower one to make 'em even?

After I bashed the tank in to allow slimming her waistline a little I put I some of my special lightweight filler which I will sand down to cover the mayhem.

To the suggestions on the mufflers: Equal length would move the top one back about 4 inches thats too much. As far as the long and low look,this is to be a flat tracker which says short and high to me. Thanks for the inputs!
Would anyone care to submit and opinion on what the items in the picture's purpose might be?

Quadrajet?

Hopefully! The Holley 8007 just wouldn't go in there w/o cutting the frame and the original plan didn't allow that. The QJ is tighter than a bull's rectum in fly time but I think it'll go.The QJ works better on a grossly overcarburetted engine than a Holley square bore anyway. If it won't work,I'll lock the secondaries closed and run it as a 2-barrel,who'll know?
Yes Robin-4barrel!
