350 in the Car, With Quadrajet

After a few weeks of working an hour or so each day, savoring the property-value-loweringness of it all, the 350 was in the car.  A quick trip to the Pick-Your-Part in Wilmington netted me a cast-iron 4-barrel intake from a 1973 Monte Carlo (originally installed on a 1967 295-horse 327, according to the part number cast in it, this intake got me a decent sum from a numbers-matching fanatic restoring an old El Camino) and a Quadrajet carburetor off a 1970 Buick.  The engine was still not running at this point (the old distributor disappeared at some point during the swap process, so I had to buy an HEI unit from a '76 Nova to replace it) but it was close.
