Thanks, Gary at Mudrak is great he’s just too busy. I will try the Clubhouse. Be nice to find someone who could come to the house and guide me through the completion process .
How much needs to be done? There are a lot of guys willing to help through the internet if you post the pics.
Post up in the PMC clubhouse. Lot of great Cruiserheads there.

nainly the wiring and vacuum hoses. Mainly. I will pay of course for the help. I’m in Windsor. Thanks , Bobg
The wiring and vacuum lines are very simple on a stock 1966 FJ40. I’m sure we can help you get it done just by posting pics and describing what you’re working on.

You’re going to run into a few compatibility issues with that newer engine. Nothing that can’t be sorted out.
From your pics I can see mismatched pulley’s on the front of the engine, and a 2bbl carb with an ICS that won’t have the necessary wire in the ‘66 harness.
If I weren’t so busy I’d offer my services. But I’m already doing one outpatient reassembly along with all the shop rebuilds...and I work alone.
