Optional coolant return from heater core. Not all radiators have the heater return option. My '70 doesn't.

Heater core should come from the plug on the intake to the left of the tstat housing.
Yup. That's what he said in his post.
Oops miss read that part
Fuel pump wiring question. The pigtail coming off the fuel pump assy has a grey and purple (pink?) wire. Connects to pink and a tan with white stripe at a weather pack connector above the axle. Runs to fuse block along drivers frame with rear light wiring. Is pink pump power and tan the gauge?
Tan/wht is pump. Pink is gauge. I think this is a truck schematic but the same I bet.
Hell yeah, thank you!
Woo hoo! Mad man on the loose!!!
I've read the heel is one of the most painful areas for injuries.
Take your time, let it heal proper.

I go to physical therapy twice a week. It's working but slowly. The scar tissue is very solid and difficult to break up so it's limiting range of motion still. Last 2 weeks one session has been dry needling. They stick about 8 acupuncture looking needles along the scar. The needles are not smooth. Once they are in she twists them one at a time and they kind of grab in the scar to help loosen it. So, yes, breaking your heal sucks big time. Don't break your feet, break anything else but your feet.
Great to be mobile and doing things again. The doc says the best thing to do is use it and try to get flexibility back. It's getting there. A few hours in the shop was brutal just a few weeks ago. I have had a good 5 hr session this afternoon and I was active all morning too.
Oh yeah, I think my proflo is wired now, and the TBI harness is about half stripped out. Gaining ground on this project.
Be careful with your coil mounted horizontally, there used to be an MSD rep on this board (can't remember his name) that warned me about doing that. When horizontal, the windings aren't completely covered in oil and can overheat and break down.
Everything looks great, I'm jelly of the Pro Flo. I'm looking forward to how it drives.

So it should be upright then? I will change it. Thanks. I needed to go back in and replace the sheet metal screws with nutserts anyway.
Yeah, upright. I tracked down the post, it was "philly87" that posted it (he hasn't been here in a long time). You might want to highlight the post to read it, he used light colored text that doesn't show up well on a dark background if you're using "dark mode".

Well your duration of 226 @ .050 is not too bad all, more mild than I expected, and I'm a dumb @$$ for not looking to see that you have a manual trans. I see why your truck cackles so much though, that is a tight lobe seperation at 108, especially for 226 duration. I hope everything works out...

Fixed it.
Nothing like a vertical coil. Hell yeah.
Got it running pretty good. Adjusted timing and idle. AFR isn't good yet because I have no exhaust. Next project. Also blew the front seal out of the power steering pump on startup. Going to need to swap it out.

I think I will just get a universal builder kit and weld up some exhaust. I used a 1991 454 exhaust manifold for a V3500, it has a port for the O2 sensor. I want to go 2.25" or 2.5" into a single 3", a universal cat, a muffler and then exit out the side behind drivers tire.
None of the "hot rod" kits come with the first piece of tube that bolts to the manifold flange. Why can't I find this first piece for sale? Most seem to start with a header flange but its not the same, manifold takes the graphite donut for a seal.
