Some new items for the engine

[madaca]

I purchased some items for the truck this past two weeks. My wife gave me a prepaid credit card with some money on it for Christmas so I could buy some stuff for the truck. I purchased some new valve covers, fuel pump, air cleaner, timing chain cover (but have not installed it yet) and a alternator bracket(had to relocate mine since the intake did not have the same mount as the one I took off. I also got a new intake from my boss at work for free. He had it sitting around for awhile I guess and found out I needed one so he told me to take it. He made my day. I also installed a quadrajet that my buddy gave me. I ran into a few thing and it didn't go as quick as I expected but it never does. I finally got it all back together this evening. I snapped some pics but will get some better ones in the day time tomorrow. Parts are dirty from installation but you get the idea. Enjoy. Oh and tomorrow I have to adjust the timing so I can get it running. Hopefully everything goes well.
