Hey welcome to a real forum! lol. I tried the gates rubber hose and it was too tight of an angle and made it collapse. I ended up with a cool flex style metal hose. You can see it in one of the engine shots. Worked great. I actually liked it so much I ordered another one for the upper hose...powdercoated black.
Good news is, USPS found my battery cable and its on the way.
Some updates, fuel line is ran and gas tank installed, engine and front clip wired up. Air tank and compressor mounted. Re-engineered my brake pedal to work with the column moved over. The old column came out right into the header so It got moved about 2 inches to the left. Also had to make a new bracket for the stop lamp switch. Had to cut and weld the pedal arm with the booster pin on the other side to gain some clearance.
Got a chrome column in trade for helping a buddy paint his truck, not my style so it getting painted vintage white like the dash on my next round of white paint. Waiting on a column drop and a u joint from CPP to connect it.
