Definitely not a freight train. Got everything installed and no issues. Took it on my test drive loop last night and drove it into town this morning for another test with no issues. No leaks, the new radiator works great and overall drivability is much improved. Need t to work out a few small items and finish adjusting the carbs/timing but it's pretty close right now. Time to enjoy it while working out the details.
15 months from when I started this journey my vision is complete....pics to follow as I'm away for a couple of days doing some fun family stuff.

Jake,
That puts you in the same category as Super Dave (PilotA12) 15 months start to finish. Not too shabby.

Jake,
To do this all in your spare time wihile still participating in family functions. No easy feat. From sending items out to get re-done, to your attention to detail, it's going to represent well @ MCACN. Your pops would be proud.

Here are the pics of the carbs as unboxed from Eric and then on the car. He sent me the procedure for adjusting the linkage and I still need to do that. Yeah, I know the intake looks a little dingy but it is a lot cleaner than when I started...........
