    Honestly, no idea either. I'd probably just say $15 plus shipping honestly.

    My mom and I went to Disney recently and while at Disney springs at a bar, it was so hot the squirrel didn't want to move. Right under our feet, just splooting hahha

    I believe I have the bracket on my d44 that I won't be using

    Sorry a day late. I may have forgotten haha They are measured to the best of my ability. Of course it flipped I wasn't quite seeing 39" on mine 38 1/2 roughly. Looks like his measurements were close to mine. I measured on top of the feet too. he may have flipped the sport bar over to get an better measurement from bottom of foot to bottom of foot

    I can confirm after work today

    Thank you!

    It's located on the driver side of the block by the engine mount. There will be a single wire running down to it It's hard to see but it is right under the blue oil filter. It will be different sizes depending on if you have dummy lights of gauges. This one is gauges.

    My longbed had shorted brackets on it and it was the original one

    I can give it a try polishing it up. I think it will shine up
  10. The86manche
    Sure enough. It's not perfect but I got one. I don't need it as mines an 86
  11. The86manche
    I may have one, I'll have to check

    The guy had just bought it, he wasn't parting or selling it

    Oh I also finally got it running! I was a few degrees off in timing so I have to re stab the dizzy. The engine was also choked which made it sound like it has a hog @$$ cam. Haha 20230709_153746.mp4

    Painted the core support brackets today, at least the inside with semi gloss black. And started cleaning up more of the engine bay in prep for the core support to go back in. And painted the rail on the passenger side with gloss Cherry red enamel. I wasn't quite happy with the results, too bright. Will have to find a darker color.

    Well progress has been slower than my liking but that's because it's rained so much thus summer. June was a wash, rained almost every day. Anyway, got some painting done and fabricating patch panels for the battery tray. Core support, chaarcoal canister and one of the header panel supports primed and then semi gloss black. Can you guess what happenehappened called it a night and let them dry? If you guessed rained you win! Wasn't happy, they got covered in spots so now I have to mist another coat on. And the battery tray patch panels.

    After some trial and error, setting, and resetting timing, going over everything and finding out for whatever reason, the repair manual is wrong about setting valve lash on this particular engine, I finally got it to fire off. Brief, but still a victory! 20230630_164755.mp4

    Nobody said this was an easy swap. And nobody really said how to do it either.. But we are getting there. Had to use a universal throttle cable. Can't say I'm too pleased with it. I intend to go back to this at some point. I might even do away with this 2 bbl setup as I'm not impressed with the way I have to make it work. I have an edelbrock 4bbl I am considering cleaning up and rejetting.

    If you are comfortable doing it there are bands you can adjust

    Also I'd put a trans in it and run it. Looks too nice to part. The interior can be cleaned. Or replaced.
  20. The86manche
    That black and gold looks good. I don't think I've seen that before. Bas to be uncommon
  21. The86manche
    Slowly cobbling this back together.
  22. The86manche
    I'm not too familiar with the 2.1 setup but could there per chance be a low pressure fuel pump in the tank?
  23. The86manche
    I like your goal and I wish you good luck. I can't wait to see how this goes Is the fuel pump not pumping at all? If you crack the fittings at the injectors does it not pump fuel up to them?
  24. The86manche
    Sad to see. But you can rebuild it. We have the technology!
