Waiting on parts for my sons suv I started back on the Colt.
I wanted to get the fuel system and shifter changed out.
I got the pistol grip handle and it's much better on my knee.
Lifting the first gear gate is a little tricky, but doable.
I had spoken to Holley about fuel pump mounting when I was having pressure issues.
They told me the pump motor should be mounted up and the pump below.
If the seal fails in the pump you could get fuel into the motor and might have an issue.
So I remounted the pump, replaced the older fuel filter and installed a new one.
Next will be removing the single four barrel and start installing the webers.
I need to reinstall the fuel pressure regulator up front and start fabricating the fuel line.
Still in the 90's here in Texas, might can get to a T&T after I get it all done.
