Got all the leaks sorted out, the freeze plug was the hardest since it was in between a 1 1/8 and 1 1/4. so the brass ones I got at Napa wouldnt fit so I took a 1 1/8 rubber one on the 2nd trip just in case and that worked!
Took off the Super Coil and Accel module and installed a stock ones since I wont be reving past 4600 rpm anymore. ( Lo Winding Monza-
perhaps )
Didn't want to start after I did that , traced it to a weak coil reinstalled the Accel module and another stock coil , it took a while to start because of no choke but finally did.( 40 degress outside)
Throttle kept sticking, thought it was the cable since its the original, took it out and lubed it , reinstalled, same thing. Traced it to the trans tunnel had gotten bumped when installing the motor and was holding the gas pedal from going all the way back. Got the ball peen and fixed that problem.
Drove it around the yard, everything good no overheating. Did a couple of acceleration tests ( about 200 feet) in the yard and went thru the gears. All ok.
Sits a little low in the front but with anything bigger than the 155/13's up front now, that should help. The oil pan is about 3 inches off the ground .( drain plug) Mufflers lowest (2 inches - turndowns)
Might need a shim on the starter ( started with none) a little hard to turn over when warm but still fires.
Will try it on the street in a day or two. ( with a "LEGAL" 3 day paper plate)
Overall , A great Day!
