The shifter for the doubler is a snug fit , but awesome hardware. The steering was also upgraded with a PSC kit and some awesome Jungle frame boxing kits

Ahhh... so I still need those dad burn ballast resistors. I was reading some reviews of the Pertronix conversion and they either love or hate them. Most seem to like them. Have you used that particular brand? I've seen kits by Mallory and others but I like that the Pertronix has a rev limiter and higher voltage. Just picking your brain. I appreciate the input. A lot cheaper than a $300 kit.

Getting back to distributors, the motor came with a single point distributor. I was leafing through a Summit catalog and saw an electronic conversion kit from Pertronix. Ignitor series has 3 levels and changes it from points to hall effect. Fits under the distributor cap and runs about a $100. Anyone ever use this system? The motor is a 67.

Yep, we had been talking about him building the motor for me for about a year. He has a guy that he uses for his motors to do the machine shop work. Keeping it basically stock with a small cam upgrade and valve springs. Ernest will do the assembly. I had some parts shipped for it. New damper, fuel pump, water pump and inlet. I even sent some VHT in the color I wanted lol. I had picked up a Mopar rear sump oil pan kit with dipstick and windage tray that I still need to get to him.
Some things I still need are distributor (not sure what to go with) and possibly an oil pump depending on whether or not it comes with the motor work. Long blocks I've had done in the past come with one. Thing is, I've always heard that B/RB motors like hi volume but not hi pressure oil pumps. Rebuilders don't like them on new motors though in my past experience. Any thoughts on this?
Looks like a big problem might be getting ahold of a big block power steering bracket for a truck. High mounts are getting scarce apparently.

As for those that can't make it, it is impossible to find a date that all can come. The only thing is to set a date and live with it. And I always found that the closer to the date, the more reasons will be found that it should have been another weekend.
Determine a date and I'll try to be there.
