Ok, my simple carb and intake swap snowballed into whileimatit iteis.
Ended up pulling the water pump and timing cover. While I'm at it I should check out this timing chain. Yup needs one. While I'm at it I wonder if a cam and lifter swap will help my performance. What a cam and lifters is only $100? for name brand USA made stuff.shoot I'll do that too. When's the next time I'll have the motor opened up?

So I'm getting all back together. Had to work out the throttle linkage. Started installing a dearborn classic fan shroud. What a POS that is. If that's an exact copy of the original I know why no body put them back on. So I installed a larger and more blade fan.

The problem I have is the heater hose routing. Which hose goes to the top fitting? My v8 supplement doesn't show or list crap. Looks like I need to order a 64 manual to get real v8 info.
