new engine

If the integrity of the pink wire is good(ohm check for continuity).Move it from the current location on the ignition switch to a keyed 12v post. Extend the wire to power the choke.

thanks A100 Wrench, thats what i'll do, probably better then running the choke and distributer on one wire

worked all day on the wiring and got it all straightened up and pulled the heater box out, tore up the glove box cardboard, so i'll order a new one, after 45 years the paper box fell all apart, removed the core and control valve, everything was locked up, all three heater control cables were rusted tight, got them freed up, and control valve wors free now, i dont want to chance the core so i ordered a new one, once i get all the heater back in i'll start on the instroments, i want to turn the hubdometer back to all zeros, and install the 4 way flasher, its much easyer laying on 2 2x10s were the engine was to work on all this, when i get the dsh all done i'll start putting the engine in,

MY CAKE,,IT WAS GOOD !

WAITING ON THE NEW HEATER CORE THEN I CAN INSTALL IT

SINCE IT A NEW ENGINE I FIGURED WHY NOT SET THE ODOMETER TO ALL ZEROS

i hope i remember were everything goes,,

I don't see any v-8 in place. so much for that birthday wish (i could have had a v-   

as soon as i get the heater core and install it, next is the radiator support then the V8, cant wait to see how this engine runs with the 4 brl.

hows your project comming along John ????

COMMING ALONG SLOW, I'LL TAKE SOME PICTURES LATER AND UPLOAD THEM, I HAVE THE ENGINE AND TRANY IN AND ONE HEADER PIPE, I'M WAITING ON INSULATION TO GET HERE BEFORE I INSTALL THE REDIATOR,,I WANT TO INSULATE ON TOP THE DYNAMAT SO NO HEAT GETS IN ANYWERE AROUND THE DOG BOX, THE LEFT HEADER WAS A BEAR, HAD TO CUT AWAY 1'' BY 6 AROUND THE FLOOR FOR THE G9042 HEADMAN HEADERS TO WORK, I CAN CUT A PIECE OF TIN TO WELD IN AND MAKE IT LOOK RIGHT WHEN I'M DONE, BUT ITS WORTH IT BECOUSE THEY FIT JUST THE WAY I WANT THEM NICE AND HIGH, I'M WAITING ON MORE HEADER WRAP TO GET THE RIGHT HEADER DONE, THERES NO PROBLEM WITH IT FITTING IN THE DOG BOX,

install insulation, right side header, and radiator then its ready to fire up, o yeah some exhaust and mufflers

I THINK THIS SHOULD WORK WELL ON MY NEW ENGINE, HAD TO CUT OFF THE CHOKE THERMOSTAT MOUNT ON THE INTAKE FOR THIS FUEL LINE TO FIT, BUT I THINK ITS WORTH IT, AND I'LL BE USEING THE ELECTRIC CHOKE ANYWAY,

Do you have the part numbers for your intake, carb and pump?

2176 edelbrock performer intake, edelbrock 1406 carb, holly fuel pump, i cant remember the # of the fuel pump,

Thanks! Did you have to go with a different cam?

its all stock, its a ATK engine that pre run on a dyno, they gave me all the numbers on it, and a 3 year no millage warranty

Nice, can't wait to hear how you like it on the road.

thanks me too, my wife wants to get me the exhaust for a christmas present but i cant open it till then, so it looks like it will sit till then, lol

Dang, that kinda sucks but not really. I have along way to go on my 66 as in I haven't really started yet.

it should be like new, i've replaced everything and had the trany rebuilt, all new brakes, lines, hoses, theres nothing thats not been changed or rebuilt, i want to make some trips next summer out west, i think it would be an adventure in one of these old girls

That sounds like the trip of a Lifetime! Take plenty of pics along the way so we can be there with you!
