Re: 390 intake swap
Looks great. Just make sure that return spring doesn't start eating into your coil wire. Maybe find a little clip that will bolt down below the nut that holds the carb down. I just don't want to see a post from you a year from now saying, "No spark and I can't figure out why?"

I hooked my spring back to one of old trapeze bolts on my 71.
