Not much to report as far as the dude goes. Have just been dailying it. Just ordered an aluminum 3 row rad, OEM hoses, and OEM clutch slave return spring for it. Want to get it cruising cooler on the highway now that there’s more resistance.

It got hot enough out that I felt the need to get the AC going. My AC idle up VSV is bad. Fixing that is on my list, but for now I’m just using the previous owners hotwired switch in the dash, and manually hooking manifold vac to the carb when I want AC idle up. The next step is hotwiring a 22RE VSV in, then actually trying to fix the stock AC electronics. It’s all here, just need to check all the pins on the AC amp and go from there.

One annoying thing that recently developed is a stumble when hot. I unfortunately traced this back to the same thing that’s been giving me hell since the beginning- Intake manifold EGR delete plate. I’m on my second plate and third OEM graphite gasket. Anything else I should attempt before JB welding that junk??
I attempted to snug up the EGR plate bolts and... one of them is just spinning. Excellent
