He must love 318s to want to keep it that bad. Sometimes those pop up like that here, not usually THAT bad, but most 318s are <$400 (carbs and intakes are expensive- and those add up into them too), and the 5.2s are right in that range- usually $550 can buy a 5.2 with all the spaghetti and the lumps of plastic to run it- and not too much more'll buy a running vehicle that doesn't smoke albeit with higher miles.

That's more than a little ridiculous. Understood on the accessories though, I couldn't really tell from the pic, but I guess considering it came out of an 80s vehicle, I shouldn't be too surprised how convoluted the bracketry was then.

Happy about your find though-at least it's all looking good so far and you plan to go through it. I recall you mentioned something about kick down cables...if you need one, I'd recommend the lokar setup...worked well in my car; easy to configure and installs cleanly.
