Long time no update, was ill for several weeks so garage time was nil BUT did get a lot done this past weekend. With Clair's help I've got a 3" driveshaft that fits perfectly, and we modified a sender unit supply line to work with an fittings and will use it for the return. He used a sleeve and a nut then we flared the tube so an an fitting bolts on directly. There is no welding involved and quite an elegant solution. Got a lot of the fuel lines run, got my 27" radiator tested and patched, got an electric fan system mounted to it, got rad hoses that fit, but didn't get to the remote filter mounting yet (sorry Clair). The original throttle cable is so long it binds up so I've ordered a lokar throtle cable. It's looking better...
