Had a leak on the oil cooler at the bracket connection(oil). Got a spare from a MUD member, and now trying to make sure I have all the pathways clean before installing the cleaned cooler. Anyone know what the bracket bolts are for in the pics?

Curious: Why the points distributor (76-77) and the later (79-newer) fuel pump?
New fabbed up heater pipe(rail)-copper. The oil cooler rail will be made of Brass tubing. hopefully, no more rust issues with this material--
Just got the OEM fuel pump in from Beno, and it is the older style-the one you can rebuild(two connections). The truck currently has a Weber on it--no return line, so I'm going to have to fab a return relief for the new pump-planning on just adding a tee in the discharge line to the return line through a small globe valve-that way, at least I won't blow the diaphragm on the new pump.
