Help a newbie make it past tech inspection.

[gofastbobby]

Hi guys. I have my mostly stock '76 c10. It has a factory 454/TH400, with cam intake and headers. I bought it to play around at test and tune, something I have never done before.

I am nervous about making it through tech inspection and am wondering some common things people get booted for.

Overall the truck is in fair shape. No big leaks or drips. Tires are good. Exhaust is good. Aside from a cracked leaf spring in the middle of the pack, the suspension is good.

I have read through the IHRA rule book and think I understand it. I just don't want to drive two hours and get turned away.

I have the battery securely mounted. I am changing all the rubber fuel hose to stainless steel braided. I am also changing the plastic oil pressure line to copper. What else should I be looking for?

Any tips or advice is greatly appreciated.
