In the garage by 6:30am to beat the heat. I took "15 minutes" to install the engine side pans and the exhaust. I did find a bent iron strapping that I believe holds the brake return spring. So, I removed the piece I fabricated earlier and I'll see if I can make this original setup work.

Also, I'm deciding if I should use the original downdraft tube from the 216 engine which would align with the existing hole in the side pan or go with the 235 tube and cut a new hole in the pan.
