Strange...my FedEx box was delivered at 9:45pm last night. Noticed it at the side door when I let the dog out this morning.
I had checked the tracking number late yesterday around dinner time...showed delayed due to "weather". :confused:

Since the shooting all their tracking is messed up ,the bodyshop said their usual deliveries are much later than usual . You got the wagon ready to go yet ?

Well...yes and no...:mad:

Wagon ran for twenty minutes today...until a BRAND NEW fuel pump decided to cease doing it's intended thing.
Ran just long enough to warm up, top off fluids, set timing, and adjust carb.
Going out now to pick a replacement one up...of course, not in stock earlier today so had to wait for the afternoon parts delivery from the warehouse.
Strange that no one around here (AZ, O'Reilly, Advance) stocks a big block OEM type fuel pump.
Consequently, missed my afternoon Muffler Shop appointment. :(

So...no Chevelle Show WITH Chevelle for me although we'll be there.
Be sure to look me up John...$$ ;)

Ray, I found this image online of a 72' W-code car without AC. The orange wire looks like the one in my engine bay - it appears to run to the heater box. (for the fan motor, I think?) Anyhow, I don't believe I need it, my car has AC. Not sure why they put that in my harness? It's an American Autowire harness IIRC. Now I am just down to the one black wire I can't figure out.

You are correct.

Put the intake manifold back on. Distributor and valve covers are on. Have to put on cap and wires, hook up alt and fill the rad.

May have found why I've had a problem getting the gaskets to seal. There is a metal tray that sits over the lifter valley. Three tabs on each side clip over bottom edge of head and stick up enough that 2 of the 3 are sandwiched between head and intake. Maybe keeping the intake from pulling down tight against gaskets. Trimmed them off so we'll see.

I guess my harness is a multi fit? Because it also had the wiring to my AC box. Maybe when I redo this car in another 10-15 years, I will pull out the harness and remove the wires I do not need.
