'68 318 to carbed Magnum 5.2: Check my checklist
Latest progress. New water pump installed, along with the old engine's fuel pump and fuel line. I'm going the 1970+ route with the water inlet on the passenger's side. I'm hoping I won't regret this.
Almost installed the '89 van's power steering bracket (actually got to the point of installing the rear bracket, as seen below), but got fed up with the fact that it requires a needless 1/16" spacer on the main bracket's lower bolt. Heck with that, I'm going to pick up the proper '70+ brackets.
You can barely see it, but the van's '89 mini starter has been installed too. Didn't clean up that well, but it's passable.
I'm probably going to stay with the 1989 pulley wheel and crankshaft pulley. Gives me a few extra belt options.
