Re: Project Mr. Green Jeans
Went to a salvage yard to take some pictures of the power steering brackets since the AC side of it was a bit different than the last SBC I put together and I noticed the truck had a pretty new fuel pump on it, and then noticed the lower radiator hose was pretty new, as well as the thermostat and housing. Found a few cars and trucks with different weight and spring kits for the HEI too. Got it all for 21 bucks!
Made a little progress on the engine. I need a Holley single feed banjo style inlet to complete. Passenger side header installed, rockers installed and adjusted. Would have been able to fire it up this weekend had it not been for the fuel inlet. I couldn't find one locally, so I started doing the interior work rather than finishing the under hood stuff.
This is after power washing the carpet and mats, and swapped over the crusty old steering wheel for the one I found this winter in the Wrench and Go yard. All back together and smelling fresher than ever!
