You want to get the fitting (90) in the front hole of the left main oil gallery for the oil filter inlet hose before you put on the fuel pump. Good time to install the lower end of the hose as well.
Also with the engine out in the open like that is the better time to install the engine ground strap in that hole just below and inboard of the front generator mount bushing hole. Also a good time to get those hard rubber generator pivot mount bushings in both front and rear. _________________ Wes K

Is there a listing anywhere of what color all the various pieces and parts in an M38 are ? I searched the site and found a few references here and there, but not a "full " list Specifically the color of the shocks, I had assumed they were OD but then saw some references to they being black ? Also the fording cable clamp brackets. I think the one that mounts on the carb base Is natural, but what about the one that mounts on the firewall? A listing would sure be helpful.

Setting up to reface the sealing surface on the water pump. I'm checking to make sure everything is "square". the lock the pump housing to the chuck and using a boring bar clean up the face. Now I just have to figure out how to polish it hopefully without removing the the new shaft/bearing assembly.
