Oh, why didn't you say so?  I will pick one up next time I am at the "Unobtainium Store", along with 245 layshaft bearings and perfect OEM NOS dashes.  LOL . 

 

All kidding aside, what a wonder bit of history there.   Enjoy !!! 

 

I will have to rely on an Accusump.

Funny, I had one that looked pretty much just like that....magnesium body and magnesium pulley, then traded one of these (Heidegger Pump.....I wish I hadn't) for a NOS Alpina pump....Alpina Pumps are really, really good.  Heidegger pumps are better.  Magnesium also....then traded the Heidegger for an NOS Alpina pump.  I'll use that on my back-up motor.....all good.

Ok, I'll play this game. First photo scanned from slide(35mm old school) in the 80's and the next almost 40 years later. A few changes over the years but only upgrades and such, we all know that game and the stories we tell.

@joysterm what did you use to mount those relays? I can’t quite make it out and I’m looking for a solution to mount the additional fuses and relays from the Koito H4 upgrade I just installed.

Right after I installed the Solexes, before the Uni filters went on. Lotsa elbow grease…

Wow John... reactor manifold, vacuum switches, charcoal cannister... fully original! Not often you see an 02 in such fine original nick. Kudos sir!

A reasonably-true-and-tidy* '74 Tii engine bay I did a few years ago - restored and sold to the wife of one of my race customers. -KB

   (*eagle-eyed folks will spot a couple of non-original bits)

Your engine bays have given my car the blues! Time to get the power washer out and do some painting!

The piece was fabricated by Midnight Motorsports, Patrick rewired the car so he takes all the credit.. I will take a closeup and DM’d you later today..

Thanks @OldRoller!

Living in California with a '76er requires a biannual smog test.

No problem passing as long as I keep all the emission equipment intact.
