Made a little more progress.
Front fuel lines are roughed in. Wound up running a new 3/8" return line with a flare fitting.
New motor mounts in.
Accessory drive slapped onto the new engine, just about ready to drop in now.
Needed to do a little minor trimming on the valve covers to clear the alternator. But everything fits up pretty good. Alternator is a little closer than I would like to the driver side manifold, will see what I can do to shield some of the heat as I suspect it might get pretty toasty in this space.
Now I need to scout for a trans jack I can borrow to roll the trans into position and get the motor dropped in.
