Making progress. Heads and intake manifold are ordered and on their way. Also ordered a Carter M3672 fuel pump. The old pump was broken in half.

Once you get it all together, check your fuel pressure early on. I went through three pumps before I found one under 6 lb.s.

Heads and rocker shafts installed.
Test fitting the manifold. Ran out of the Turquoise paint so will need to wait a bit before proceeding.
Valve covers are just sitting in place. I have had these in storage for over a decade. Thought now might be a good time to put them to use.

Put some oil in it, ran the oil pump to get primed and then installed the Intake Manifold.

Heads painted, fan and pulley installed. Still waiting for new parts to arrive.
Also, it turns out my Holley 850 is so old that Holley doesn't even list parts for it on their website. I emailed them and they said I had to call and speak to an order specialist. LOL
