Success, she LIVES again!!
Was a bigger pain than we hoped for, but got the HEI put into the 70 today. had to spend several hours cleaning/replacing fuel lines/filters and all. The line was clogged/varished solid in 3 or 4 places. I'm not sure the gas would have even burned had it made it to the carb. Got it flushed out and new gas in and she roared to life (as much as a 6 can) Man does it run smooth.
Many thanks to EdB and our friend Robert. It is wonderful to have friends that will spend their afternoon helping me clear out my crap. I was also able scrape off the paint and undercoating on one side of the bed. Slowly but surely it is starting to come together, but she RUNS .... and moves too. Think I'll hose off about a years worth of dust and residue tomorrow she deserves it. Pretty soon
