Thanks for the all encouraging words!

Last night I was able to get the smog pulley installed and put the belt on. The engine compartment now all buttoned up. In regards to the brake bleeding, I had some issues getting enough fluid out of the rears - even removed the new line I installed and blew air through it to make sure it was not constricted somehow that I could not see, not sure what is happening here but the fluid is just dribbling out and not a stream like the fronts. Fronts bled perfectly right away. Will take another shot at the rears tonight - maybe I did not allow enough time to make sure fluid was moving through the rear system completely. Getting closer though!

EDIT: Looks like my new valve may not be centered - thanks Tim for the tip! Lots of YouTube videos on how to correct this, also just bought a re-centering tool too.
