Just doing what I do
I get about 20,000+ emails per year at work. That’s about 125 per day. Often there are at least 20 when I open my inbox every few hours.
There are two ways to approach this kind of volume, tactical and strategic.
The tactical way means opening each one starting with the oldest and replying to them one at a time until you get through them all. This often means you are giving an irrelevant reply to a string of emails that has moved far beyond the first one, making you look clueless or just plain late to the party with nothing to offer. You also waste time responding to low priority ones while the important ones wait for you to get to them.
The strategic way means opening and reading all new emails before responding to any. This way you are up to speed on the latest responses and can prioritize which ones to respond to first and which can wait, maximizing your efficiency and effectiveness.
It is the difference between playing checkers...and playing chess.

You did when you responded.

I will do that for sure! Mine has a little /6 in her that I plan to keep in it. I think the only other thing so far I have to get for it to drive it is the exhaust manifold gasket. She is leaking a bit there. So far.... we all know how that goes!!!
The intake and exhaust manifold gasket is all one piece... Be careful not to over torque the bolts/nuts for the manifolds, they go to like 10 foot pounds...
I like to put the both manifolds on a flat surface (bench or counter top) to line up the ports in line with each other, then tighten the bolt that attaches the two that goes under the carb... Then install the manifolds together to the engine and torque the nuts to torque with the oval washers... I use a standard depth socket on a long extension to get the nuts started on the studs first, then torque to spec starting from the center out...

Yep but I'm always looking if there's a deal out there. I'm actually looking for a regular 727, 68 and newer as well
Karl responds one quote at a time, I guess I'll do that
Why did you go with brass instead of standard grade 5 or grade 8 nuts???

You do that...I won’t bother with you again.
I just found out about this guy who is also in north west Indiana...
Eddie is getting a little frustrated with John Cope....
I think I will try this guy next...

Sorry to hear that. I worked with Rick Alison on parts when rebuilding the 727 in my cuda. Cope had a good rep and slightly different selection of parts. I went with A&A because of a direct recomendation and he was helpful, so I wasn't switching horses - I bought everything from A&A.
