The 1976 Beater Build - by Wixthedog

Decided to fit up the headers and make the spark plug wires. I knew I was going to have to clearance #3 plug so I did that and I also beat on #7 a little bit so I could get a socket on it. It was so close!

I added a ground cable that ties the heads together and then comes down on a single cable run to the passenger side frame, it's pretty clean.

I threw a new pilot bearing in since the crank was used with a Turbo 350 last. My neighbor taught me a trick installing one, he uses a slightly modified steering wheel puller with some longer 7/16x20 bolts, man that worked like a champ!

Bolted up the flywheel and clutch kit and away we go!
