Happily surprised the port sizes are a perfect match, thought for sure I was going to have to remove the stock BBC heads and port match them, excellent!!! Now to call Jegs and order the rest of my little stuff, and as we know the little stuff all adds up to big dollars, fiancee will be out of town for a week so here's my chance to finish.
Left to order shouldnt be too bad:##if anyone sees something no good speak up
intake gaskets fel-pro 1212
HEI dizzy to replace my points set-up-Jegs says the Proform line has been trouble free so might look into that-later I'll order the vac delete kit
wires
plugs- I assume just standard plugs for an HEI car/truck since my combo isnt radical-anyone?
jet kit for my Demon carb
rebuild kit for Demon
fuel feed Y to bowls
throttle cable bracket-old one hits the squirter pump arm
2" carb spacer-my little experiment.
Gascasinch, Aviation gasket sealant, and clear silicone
oil change
And this will be enough for the year, then might play with a different engine combo. Have to find, probably order a timing gun and a vacuum gauge-hard to find in stores these days. Then drop her in the lake make sure she still floats and run on the trailer, if all runs right drink beer.

I use a 1" spacer under the carb and the linkage dosn't hit, on a Vic jr airgap R intake.
I'd rather trust a stock GM hei out of an old dually before I'd use Proform. GM module, Vacuum delete and spring kit too. But thats on my junk.
Get decent wires, 8 or 8.5 mm wires. Plugs- R-44T S (A/C Delco's)

I ended up buying a Mallory performance dist with a billet housing and some nice Taylor wires, amongst other things. I researched Proform, your right super crap.
