Mine is 74 350/th350/np203

read through your thread, it gave me a good idea of what I want to do. I have a universal tubular engine mount Im going to use because I really dont like the look of the stock mounting.

Do you have any pics of your brake booster and how it is set up? I got this truck from my dad, at one time he had a guy start rebuilding it but he was just dicking around so we took it back. The trucks pieces are scattered and I dont really know what Im looking for lol.
