Pretty awesome Jim your booking through this project!! Is that the kid helping you? I need to make it down for a scramble so I can hold Pat back from stealing jeeps after a few brews :?: errrr :mrgreen:
rollbar
Yes, long nights & that is my son, I went to Alabama this past weekend and picked up my daughter who graduated with honors from Faulkner University w/a AS in Biology, she is the one who jumped in on the last set of pics to help out. I might need some help w/a part of the engines wiring and will post later in the engine section. Have to run down to Tampa to see a heart/kidney patient.
I have factory rims I'm going to paint up later, I am moving @ the end of the month and wil finish the toucjes after, want to drive it to the next location :)
Thanks again,
Jim
P.S. I have not received the parts/tracking # yet.

Great progress, looks like Advanced came through with a fuel pump. The Thermostat housing looks like it might be a replacement cast iron piece sold by parts stores that is actually made for an Oldsmobile and will fit an AMC but doesn't line up very well with the pad, bolt holes, or ports in the intake. They work, but an actual cast aluminum AMC thermostat housing would fit, line up, and seal better, for what it's worth, not a big deal, just mentioning it.

Wow, I didn't know that. When I took it off the PO had broken the left ear off the INTAKE :shock: :(: :(: :(: where the bolt goes into the intake. I sealed it up and put a 195* stat in and it's tight. I hope it doesn't leak, it shouldn't cause it's on the passenger side of the ear. Some people. I wonder what else is rigged in this motor :shock: :roll: #-o
