Howdy all, new guy here, Tank. I have a 69 C-3 with a 71 454/365 hp out of another C-3 transplanted in it. Somebody did a good job, just no upkeep for the past 5-10 years. It looks really good, I'm just making it run as good as a 454 can. Anybody have info for heat/A/C vacuum lines? Thanks, Tank

I'll send some pics as soon as I figure out how to do it. I'm really good with a wrench, not worth a dang on this thing.
