 Update
Well everyone we hope to leave for South Carolina on saturday by noon.
Our manifolds had zero cracks and zero broken studs therefore we remounted the right hand side.
The heat riser diaphram was shot so we wired the butterfly open and blocked the vaccum line.
We replaced the alternator with a rebuilt it work for 20 miles -while I drove to a friends shop to rebuild the carb ( maybe next year we will put on the Edelbrock) but when I arrived we tested it and it was a dud ,the local auto parts store will replace and has offered to pay for installation I hope we can replace the alternator faster this time.
Evelyn and I are looking forward to our trip and would like to thank everyone for helping us.
I am one of the members that stays in the background reading and learning. I hope to meet some of you next spring at Mystic Springs.
Thanks
Ray & Evelyn
