Though maybe you guys would like to wrap your ear around my other stroker. I apologize for how handsome i am.

Flat tappet cams need zinc and phosphorus among other things, there are several oils that supply them, valvoline and mobile make "classic car" and "hot rod" and " older car" branded oils, as do the performance oil manufacturers, driven, joe gibbs, amsoil, schaeffer, lucas, etc. Stick with the...

Nobody local to me turns cranks anymore, thats one of the reasons i wound up with a stroker. Beautifully finished crank and rods fully balanced and shipped to my door. The added power was just a bonus.

One of the few snap- on tools i bought new years ago. Used to be much cheaper, i think leslie makes them for them, make sure you get the full set. Snap-on Store

It would be nice to be able to use a b-body tank as tanks inc makes a nice tank with a sump and baffles, and will sell you an in-tank pump and pickup, which makes it nice for any fuel injection setup, or by using a bypass regulator allows you to feed your carb with cool fuel from the tank, which...

Note, i should have said you have to use a drop base baseplate with the single snorkel top cover. I have a holley base quickfuel carb and use a drop base with the top cover, this leaves an open annulus under the top cover because it is larger than the baseplate, although the filter still works.

mine was a 440 to start with. Hood clearance is close with the performer rpm with the stock single snorkel housing, but do-able. I can only use a 1/2" spacer under my carb

After sleeping on it, I was turned around. The "T" connector ties to the door pin wires, so it must be a buzzer of some sort. The Black and red "V" connector is the turn signal flasher. The other pink/whit connector is the hazard flasher. And as Big_John said above, the odd 3 blade...

Thanks gents! I suspected i was looking for something that the precious owner deleted. However, the mystery deepens, i found another connector, that calls into question what i thought i knew. The pink and yellow T-shaped connector looks like it could be a flasher connecror per my wiring...
