Eileens 79 Corvette resurrection. It survived 1450miles on Power Tour

Wait till Jr gets home so he can help with any heavy lifting, I am guessing since a new 16" elec fan is being added it will be in front ?
No room in front of the condenser. Hood opens within an inch of it. Plenty of room behind the radiator because they are at an angle.
 
Where the heck does she put them all? Or does she just tow the cart home with the car?
 
The day that picture was taken, Eileen forgot to stop for the non ethanol gas. Filled a tank of e10. Should have just added enough to get back.

Car ran like crap again. Just like on Power Tour.

So I started tuning to the crappy gas. Had to go up 4 jet sizes front and back. Air bleeds and retard it 2 degrees.
 
Yep, full .5 split on the AFR stepping to e10
 
I need to replace one fuse box tap. Wire has a couple of strands holding it. I wanted to add another for the fuel pump. I can not find the original style plug.

Every time I want to buy these little items they are 5 to 10 times more on Amazon and Ebay because they need to cover the shipping.
I usually get a bunch of them on rockauto and pay the shipping and the cost is as much as 1 on Amazon.
I had to buy the plastic inserts in the core support for the headlight adjustment and I got enough for 2 trucks with quadlights for the price of one on Amazon $13
