I've been doing some work to my new acquisition.
I'm also still looking for the prior owner in OR.
First I wanted to tidy up under the hood a little.
I got rid of the chrome air cleaner and breather cap and put back the original air cleaner.
The engine now vents through the air cleaner.
(I took the before pictures after I already installed the heat riser tube.)
I stumbled across a factory fresh air intake tube on Craigslist for $10, so I put that on.
I also removed the unnecessary and ugly heat shielding from the fuel lines.
Unfortunately, I need to leave the fuel regulator because the PO put on an Edelbrock carb and it does not like too much fuel.
I'll find something less conspicuous later.
Here are before and after pictures.
