Well here is the heart! I went a picked it up today at around 11:00. I was not really impressed with the paint job that came on it, so I re shot the whole thing today to make sure there will be no corrosion. I then started the re-assembly. I found that the valve covers are too high so I need to go get some shorter ones on Monday. I also found that the new timing cover was about a 1/16th of an inch to tall, but an extra gasket took care of that. Noe I just need to start rebuilding the carb. Anyone rebuilt one of these quadrajets?
My Glastron had a rotten transom and a wore out 305. Watch as I restore her to her previous glory.
