Finished 302... It's stock except for the headers and valve covers
The headers are reversed to fit the FFR side pipes
My secret, OR how I put it all back together
Bend the stock fuel lines up to clear the header
Convertible motor mounts are stronger than stock.
Move the air valves up and out of the way like this
Don't forget the ground wire
The valve covers are taller than stock so the throttle bracket must be raised
This vacuum T hit the taller valve cover and needed to be "adjusted" Read: Ground down until it's paper thin.
Move the oil sender out of the way of the header. Still seems mighty close.
Use some silicone to hold the O ring in place.
Oil filter relocator on the engine
Rework the AC bracket
Before
After
I marked the distributor position, but forgot to do the rotor. (Dumb move!)
The sparkplugs all look good.
