Welcome to Just Commodores, a site specifically designed for all people who share the same passion as yourself.
What about now:Thanks. I hate it.
I can’t weld and it’s something I’d like to teach myself.So tidied up the three hard lines that run under the trans and engine (two for fluid cooler and one for vacuum) and connected the vacuum to the vacuum modulator on the distribution pump. I found out that this is a controlled vacuum bleed relative to engine throttle position. So I'm probably going to need that.
Tightened up some sump bolts while I was under there, must have been loose since I bought the engine.
Then today I corrected the vacuum hose nipple on the banjo on the vacuum pump.
What a PITA thing to weld.

As long as it works, the appearance doesn't really matter.
My gasless mig was very cheap, came with a helmet. I also bought proper gauntlet gloves and away we go.I can’t weld and it’s something I’d like to teach myself.
If its a single dial it probably only has one power setting. Notice on the mig usually the 2 dials are volts and wire speed.Single dial 'smart machine' that adjusts wire speed and amps in one go. Makes it dummy proof.
I thought it was amps and wire speed normally.If its a single dial it probably only has one power setting. Notice on the mig usually the 2 dials are volts and wire speed.
