The check valve is directional. Make sure you have the correct orientation of the valve. Either way you should be able to bleed the brakes properly. Good chance that reaction disc fell out. Ask me how I know..

@OwnalldayDid you mention in an earlier thread whether or not your using the stock bolt or the one MSA recommended? Which bolt is currently attaching the balancer?

@Av8fergI plugged mine with Allen head brass npt pipe plugs from Ace hardware. Used Teflon tape, So far so good.

Banzai has NOS I recently bought.

Confused about the replacement damper from MSA being +20. Someone please chime in…

Have you set the engine at top dead center on the compression stroke, remove the distributor and check the drive spindle for 11:20. That’s going to give you the indicator your looking for.

Good luck trying to contact those folks. A lot of horror stories on this forum related to Whitehead performance. They don’t answer the phone or emails.

Hey John, take your meter and check continuity from the spade to ground. Have no idea what that is but it looks like it’s possibly a ground connection.

That bellhousing looks like the one I just cleaned and refurbished!! What a Job!!

Pics please Cliff, I’m getting close to that stage on mine. Thanks….

So Cliff that’s your 25 cents worth😂😂

Just finished the auto to manual conversion on my 78. Drive shaft completely interchangeable. Changed diff R180 to R200 no difference in bolt patterns. Like @Zed Head mentioned flanges may be round or rectangular bolt pattern does not change. However,the ZX turbo T5 trans has a larger diameter yoke but the pinion flange remained the same.

Possibly soaking it in boiling water and see if that frees them up. Just a thought.

Those look Beautiful!!

Look straight down in the pic. You’ll see the bottom bolt next to the recoil spring and you can see the edge of the spring bracket held on by that bolt. Here’s a pic

John, your intake does not have 4 bolts where the throttle body mounts?

Theres a curved vacum port on the bottom of the throttle body

The canister and the vac advance are connected by a vacuum “T”. The bracket for the spring iirc mounts to the bottom bolt on the throttle body on the engine side.

That’s an aftermarket pump. Way less expensive but….again controversial.

Did you recently replace the factory pump with the aftermarket model. Controversial subject I know.

Can you start the car by jumping the starter solenoid and the key in the on position.
