Thanks for the update Rick. On the fuel pump, sometimes we get lost on the need for the latest, greatest pieces just because we believe we need them and they look cool.

Years ago a buddy raced a 427/4 speed Fairlane and was running low 12s with a stock fuel pump and lines. Everybody told him his pump was holding the car back and he needed an electric pump and all the goodies that went with it. He spent almost $200 for the pump, all new bigger lines, and regulator. Guess how much the car picked up?

I ran a stock Slant 6 pump on Ruster for many years with a 750 Carb it went 12's.

Yep! The webers want high volume and low pressure, @ 3.5# or so, thus my concern that the stock pump may have too much pressure and then drop off at high rpm. Doesn't appear to be an issue.

Most all of the parts are now on hand or are on the truck from Dr.Diff to perform my 4 speed swap! I was going to start next week, but with this tiny little snow they are calling for I will probably wait till that mess is cleaned up.

New "modified" Quick time bellhousing- check
Lightweight steel racing flywheel, resurfaced-check
New Mcleod 10 1/2" clucth and PP. - check
Mcleod Hydraulic clutch assembly - check
Measurement from Lou on hydraulic clutch rod mount-check ( Wonder where I put that?)
Rebuilt 833 OD with new shift fork & linkage-check
Offset master cylinder adapter-check
Two cans of color matched paint for the inner fenders-check
New front and rear carpet-check
New shifter boot-check
New Rod & main bearings-check (These are just in case I want to pull the pan while engine is out, which I likely won't)
New complete fuse box & wiring-check ( If I am feeling energetic, which I'm not)

I don't think I am missing anything all that big. So after the Blizzard here I come!
