You have a Great truck, purchased a new 1973 Chevrolet Super Cheyenne back then while in school ( university of Alaska-Fairbanks), remember 4 speed had a Chrome shift lever.

Thanks for the compliments! I thought my dad scored a pretty nice truck in 1975 when he got this one! And since I have no plans on ever getting rid of this truck...

Glad to hear these fuel line photo's might help somebody else. Fyi- All of the rubber fuel line is the high pressure GATES BARRICADE HOSE (I bought it off of eBay in increments of 4-6 Ft). The vent lines are regular fuel hose running back up front to the Charcoal cannisters (yes I am keeping them). The hard fuel lines above the tranny are NICop- 3/8" and 5/16" lines, I bent myself so I would have hard lines over the trans, going to the drivers side fuel rail on the engine.

I think the hardest part of this build, is all the retro fitting I have had to do just to make things fit/work.

Like running all of the new hard fuel lines AND installing the POLLACK valve.

Hopefully that will all pay off going forward.
