Thanks. That was shortly after I installed the engine. Because it replaced a 250 six, literally every bolt, bracket, hose, and belt were new, except for the air cleaner. It eventually got headers, which also looked great for a while.

Check my signature. Sold the 82 and just got the 69 back yesterday.
