Default Re: New to the Y Block!

Pushrods in. Adjusted rockers with the quarter turn method.
Gapped and cleaned the old sparkplugs. .35
Gapped points. .16

Rigged a soleniod with a handheld starter button.

Carberator needs work so I'm bottle feeding it, hard to get an idle that way :]'

Have new wires,cap,rotor, and plugs to put on yet, but since the carb is still an issue I'll wait till it's a little farther along. Plan to also setup a makeshift coolant tank so I can go through the cooling system before installing it in the truck.

Oh yeah, here is the video link.
