Ok, after 10 months, I'm finally putting this beast back together. I'm running a 45 DCOE carb (for reference). So, I planned all this out months ago, so just want a few of you to read what I'm doing and be sure it sounds correct. Thanks! I kept my charcoal cannister and ran my fuel return and vent to it. I ran my brake booster line to the intake, as well as my crankcase ventilation. (the one on the filler neck, plugged the lower one.) I took the sight plate off at the top of the motor, (near the slave) turned the motor over till the opening on the flywheel (where the numbers are stencilled) was centered on the flat spot, the aligned my dizzy rotor to L1 and dropped her in. That should be TDC correct? Lastly, I'm connecting my pump, filter and reg tomorow, but am curious as to what to do with the vaccuum fitting at the top of the reg. just leave it? plug it? Here's a pic for reference.




So, do the lines sound right? dizzy? vaccuum on the fpr? Also, when I connect my fuel pump, can I then just unplug the stock one, plumb a couple hoses to bypass it and thats that? Thanks to everyonr that reads and comments here. I'm just scared of ****** up first time out. Measure twice, cut once, ya know!
