What's wrong with the 350 in this ad?
I found 5 glaring problems with the 2nd pic in this c-list ad.
Maybe you can find more.

Hmmmmm, OK,
1) battery cable to alternator, interesting
2) no bolt alt/intake bracket
3) I personally would not use that much rubber fuel hose.
4) no bracket for the throttle cable
5) PVC hose missing
6) no fan shroud
7) guages.... enough said
8) obviously no distributor/wires
9) fan belt hanging off
10) rad overflow hose going to catch up in fan (in the unlikely event that the POS ever starts)
11) lower alt bracket missing
12) alt belt off
13 heater hose off
14) P/S bracket spacers (this was in PHR, supposedly adds 10 HP)
15) no cable to starter
My fingers are tired, someone else take over.....

Things not connected:
Alt belt.
Top Alt bracket not screwed down with manifold bolts.
Bottom of Alt. to lower bracket.
Washer hoses.
Other things:
Throttle return spring to Temp sender.
Long rubber hose from fuel pump to carb.
What's that idler pulley shaft on the PS pump bracket?
Head Bolt in oil sender hole (shouldn't fit - different thread).
Heck, what else am I missing?

The head bolt would have trashed the threads in the block's oil line, that would KILL the whole deal for me. Good eye, MD!
Jimbo got the missing throttle bracket.
Does he have special silver electrical tape?
Did he run it like this?
Only God knows.
You have renewed my faith.
