Thank you Frank.

There wouldn't be a diagram somewhere of all the fuel lines would there?

What I saw was less than stellar. Pointing the fuel line up, I saw a mediocre 4-5 inches of fuel shooting up. I was not very impressed.

This was with a new fuel filter as well.

After you changed from points to Pertronix did you retime the vehicle? Points affects timing and with the replacement it will definitely make a difference

One stud came off. So you would think it would be simple to align it.

I've jacked the subrame as high as it will go and still can't get them to align. Maybe I need to take a break

Aligning differential and subframe

Hi guys,

Is there an easy way to align the diff and the subframe to get all the studs to line up with the subframe?

Thanks
