UPDATE UPDATE

IT RUNS!!

Started up on the first try and ran great. Has a small exhaust leak at the block and a small drip coming out of the dipstick area of the transmission.

I still need to know where that vac line coming off the end of the intake manifold goes though, right now I just have it blocked off with a golf tee...ideas? Nothing seems to be short one vac line....

I also ended up doing the firewall coupling delete for the heater core as it was still dripping and I had zero faith in it. Turns out upon removal that it had broken internally and was due for replacement anyways. One bullet dodged there!
