After.
A vinegar soak does wonders on nasty connectors. Had to replace some parts. The printed circuit was fried. Probably from when someone hooked the temp sender wire to the coil hot post...
Dash all works now except the fuel gage.

Other than boring fluid changes that pretty much brings us up to now. Didn't do anything over the winter. Itching to get back to it tho.

I have all the stuff to convert to a dual pot master cylinder for a split brake system. That's next on my list.
Then I'll probably try again with the HEI. One way or another the ignition is getting an upgrade.
And of course the Clifford intake and headers with new dual exhaust.

Which brings up another question...
What's the best way to orient the carb? The adapter for the Holley can go either direction. The previous owner had it set up with bowls front and rear but it kinda seems like sideways would flow better the way the intake is.
