waiting for hoses. go the 90 degree bend metal hose and another therm that i left in my shopping cart. lol sending that back

 

still waiting for return kit and s pipe

 

Ok got both rubber fuel lines at pump and pump to carb metal line. i took my vette to a carb specialist that started pointing out a million things that look like it needs tuneup. the tune up kits i see online seem easy enough until you start researching. This is why @lars is the expert.

I took out the carb. Seems original. I see epoxy at the bottom which leads me to believe someone already attempted the leaking bowl situation. I ordered a rebuilt one from corvette mods and will take a look at the difference between them. I may send mine to @lars to rebuild if he's interested. While I was at it. I noticed the manifold gasket was leaking all around the sides where the valve covers meet it. I always thought it was my valve cover gaskets till I remembered I replaced them already. I took them off and looked carefully. Manifold gasket needs to go. I already removed bolts except the one holding the a/c compressor bracket to manifold. It stripped. I'll pickup a 12 point ratchet and attempt removal later this week.

So for now, waiting for intake manifold gaskets, new gasket for hei dist. new egr valve (cheap), new hose kit for egr, new carb and gasket, and then install the fuel lines. In for a penny in for a pound. Anything else I should look at/replace while I'm at it? except the engine? lol.

 

so I got a little crazy. I had a slight leak at the manifold and ordered a new gasket but then decided to order a new manifold and then a new egr etc. need help identifying some tubes npt piece etc to install clean:
