More car progress

Dale helped out on Saturday as I did an intake Manifold swap. I was able to procure an Edelbrock RPM airgap intake manifold for cheap - it was new, but had been bolted on an engine and never run.

I took the opportunity to remove the heater hoses for now since I dont ever run the car in the cold.

The engine fired up well, timing seems about right. This is what the timing curve looks like right now. I approximated this by setting RPM with the idle screw and using the timing light to measure timing.


I think it needs more timing but Im not going to adjust it until I can drive the car.

My new fuel lines have a slight leak which I need to fix, then its drive time!
