I thought that vac. adv. port from the distributor needs to go to constant (manifold) vac. to provide advance at idle- is that not correct??Quote:

That would make sense. I've never tried to run vacuum from the carb's vacuum port before, so I don't know how that would affect the advance on the dizzy negatively. Probably best to just draw is straight from the manifold like you're saying.Quote:

what about the fuel input?
Just hook up the first vac port on the dizzy up to manifold vacuum and leave the port on the dizzy closest to the front of the car unplugged.Quote:

"it"... you mean the unused distrib. vac. port? If so then yes you can plug or cap it for a cleaner look. I did also.Quote:

to another thing , today I made a replacement tube for the PCV valve.
I couldn't find an oem shaped tube to go from the metal box to the valve so I decided to make an adaptor here it is.
took an SS pipe and used a small piece of it , also cut the original PCV valve ( also was curious to see why it doesn't work (spring was broken)) and used a metal spacer/washer to center everything out.

Metal box? I thought it just looped in a "u" shape back to the man.?
what I'll have now will be : metal box=>hose=>adaptor=>hose=>pcv valve=>hose=>manifold.
no. It goes from the manifold to an oil separator on the back of the block.Quote:

had to rerute the crank breather and to connect it to the vacoom port on the manifolds side

Might need a fuel press. regulator. Ended up putting one on mine along w/ adjusting the float.
I remember reading in other posts that a pressure regulator isnt necesary ..

btw ,
the pcv valve installed the right way ? air goes up , not down , right?
I read that also. However after driving approx. 200 mi. w/out one I began experiencing severe flooding; I then installed a regulator & adjusted the float to get it to run again. I mentioned it in the event you experience problems. Good luck, you deserve it.
finaly fixed the vacuum lines

Good work! I just did my wheel bearing yesterday as well as lower ball joint. Your projects turning into a complete overhaul. It will be so nice to drive it again soon.
thanks !!
it will also be nice if someone moves this thread to the "project forum"...
I wish I had the time/$$/intiative/skill/etc., etc. to do all that....
