[69gmcc10]

Sorry, I haven’t posted for a while on this, so here is the update. I did get the truck running within 3 weeks of starting the project and it would have been 2 weeks but I had a fuel leak on the cab side of the fuel pump where it screws in, so I bought and bent a new fuel line. My mechanic friend said I wouldn’t be able to do it, but I bought a pre flared 30” piece and showed him wrong! The truck started right up on the first try and then when I went to set the timing I noticed the balancer was wobbling badly so I had to find a new, used balancer and re-shim the pulley. I got that fixed and took it for a drive it developed a clacking I can only imagine is a sticky lifter because we reused most of the lifters, so now I am digging in to clean up the lifter. I also need to rebuild the carb and do some adjusting on the advance curve because there is a significant stumble on part throttle response…..it never ends!
