If you want it as simple as possible, you can literally get rid of all the vacuum lines except for the vacuum advance, brake booster, and heater/a/c system. None of the other crap is necessary. I have a '73 318, thats what I did... Hope that helps.

Do you have the front bumper core and front bumper brackets for a '73 RR/Satellite?

I wound up going with the high volume. It was the same price so i figured why not. It's only gonna help not hurt it if anything

That was my thought exactly, that perhaps the oil pump seized and caused the shaft to break. Okay, I'll go ahead and replace the pump and the shaft. Should I go with the high volume pump, since I'm replacing it anyway? - - - Updated - - - That was my thought exactly, that perhaps the oil pump...

Well. Time for an update on this thread... I finally was able to troubleshoot, I pulled the intermediate shaft and sure as shot, it's sheared. SO, here's my next questions....is there any way to get the sheared portion out without dropping the oil pan and pulling the pump? My magnet tool...
