A little progress yesterday.........
I received this data sheet from Roto-Faze yesterday. They are sending me some parts to return the dizzy to a mechanical advance. I also got what one of my friends referred to as........."the music box is back in place"

Super cool !!!
 That leveler is very interesting. I haven't seen one like that before yours. Have you tried using it for a complete engine/trans install ? I use the traditional long one with a chain on both ends to get enough angle. I had to use Don Yenko's method of raising the back of my '62 Impala to get the 409/TH350 in it and that works too.

Inching up on twisting the tail. Waiting for a new front bearing for the alternator and then I should be ready to go.
I am waiting for distributor parts from Roto-Faze. Having said that, I put new points and condenser in the 170 dist and spun that on the machine today to set the dwell. Added the lightest springs I had, to bring the advance is as quick as possible. I'll map the curve to see where it really is once it's running. Going to fire the car with the old exhaust.....making sure all is well. Then, build the new system

On a different note, if one of you has an original 14" air cleaner base that has had breather tube removed (like for a double pumper) I'd be interested......
