Mission creep....
While I had the air cleaner off I decided to do a little engine clean up and detail. I have a lot of parts that were gathered for the stalled engine transplant on the Red Car, and these came in very handy. I switched out the TCS switch, installed Norwood's new repro heat riser parts, installed an NOS choke coil and cover, installed an NOS idle stop, switched out the throttle cable bracket, replaced the throttle return spring, installed a new brake booster vacuum hose, removed and repainted the valve covers, switched out the breather tube, and media blasted and repainted the a/c brackets. If I had planned better I could have added one of Greg's upper radiator hoses to the list, but I do have one coming from the next batch he makes. I had a very good starting point, but I am happy with the improvements. I'm sure I've missed a few things or have some items that are not correct and welcome all the help I can get. Here's a few before and after shots - regrettably I did not fire up the camera before removing the valve covers.
