Very exciting! Git some air cleaners on there. What's the break-in plan?


Oh, for sure. I already have them and they will go on tonight. I had some sparks coming from the bottom, where the transmission meets the engine, anyone have an idea what this is from? I'm thinking I did something wrong with the throwout bearing?

As for break in, a few weeks ago at the German Auto Fest, we bought a magnetic filter to take care of all those metal shards.

I am not a type IV expert by anyone's standards, but I was wondering how big your motor was...? 48 IDA's tend to be way too big for most applications, causing flooding, running rich, backfires, etc.

Just a thought...

Will that fuel pump move enough fuel for those carbs?

Awesome build - I just read your thread from start to finish!

In response to your questions on the 48s, without getting too technical, it all has to do with the venturi size, emmulsion tubes, and the primary jets.

..... This all equals a good running engine with that uncomparable IDA woot sound.

Ok, so I have a boring update, but an update non-the-less.

Whoever the PO was, he decided to Powder Coat the heating tube parts without removing the paint. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)

(IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/a01eaee2.jpg)


Worked on these for a bit and plan on putting them on the car either tonight or tomorrow.


(IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/437fc1f8.jpg)

Also, spruced up the brake lines a bit. Unfortunatly, the ones on my car I over looked before painting, so now they are uncoated and Orange (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Luckily, the 76 had some good ones.

I was originally going to go with braided, but after that thread last week, I decided to hold off.

Headlights are in and mounted, chrome is polished. Really like the look of the H4's.

(IMG:http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b6/Emar06/084e53cf.jpg)



Sanded down the headlight shrouds, and put a base on them, might go a little more flat....

Attached Image

Headlight surrounds:

Looks like you have the original 1970 white ones that had been painted black.

If you want, I have black ones off of my '76 that have <85,000 miles that you can have. I'm back dating with the early white ones on my car, as pictured above. You might want to attempt restoring the white surrounds, at a later time. They're rare and correct for your model year.

Let me know. I'm in Carlsbad.

Great progress thread!

Thanks,

Finishing up the heating tubes and everything under the car, does this look right so far?

Do you have a washer on that engine bar mounting bolt? Doesn't look like it from here. Heater stuff looks fine.

Gint, thanks for the reply. I actually do have the washer on there, just checked.

Would anyone happen to have a picture of all the tubing, I ran a search, but I don't thmk it's a popular item to photograph.
