It Lives!!!!

Oil - check
Ignition - check
Fuel - check
mufflers... ugh nope

stand back... Vroom!

The evening started when Doc came over.
We removed the intake, re-sealed it and re-installed it.
Installed the carb and fuel line.
Plugged all the vacuum ports.
Put in the Distributor, wired it and made an educated guess at the timing that worked out well.
Created an upper radiator hose using 1 1/4" PVC pipe for the U-turn that was required

We didn't have water in it for this test, we were to anxious to see if it would attempt to start and did not think really that it actually would start.

So this week, I will create some exhaust and fill with water so we can run for longer. Plus it will be alot quieter so we can hear the motor.
