Post 68 Rebuild...

The wiring and hoses are pretty straight forward...should be lots of helpers here to guide you.

Do you have the carburetor and distributor dialed in for the new motor/driveline..??

This is a short water pump setup...what fan and radiator are you using..??

Looking forward to hearing it run...

Carb and distributor are dialed, I bought a '69 style 7 blade fan (RAD-528 on Camaro Central) and then the correct clutch for a short pump (RAD-84N). Radiator is a DeWitt's 2 core direct fit. Spendy SOB but... looks almost factory and should cool perfectly.
