stangeba Posted February 27, 2024 Posted February 27, 2024 Welcome Leo! Looking good!! I see the picture of the rear axle and the missing gas tank. I wanted to mention how on my 71 350 4bbl when I replaced all the original small fuel / vapor lines at the fuel tank one had a very small blue plastic restrictor (INSIDE THE HOSE) that I almost threw out! Here is a picture. If you have removed all the original emission stuff, it may not matter at all but I wanted to share my experience. Enjoy! 6 Quote
