5.2 Magnum into a '72 Scamp-tips?

Bkbond, I thought about that, and I did attempt priming the carb. About that time, I was running into issues with timing (probably 180* out) and decided to call it a day. I'll re-attack that as the opportunity comes available.

Jos, the engine (longblock minus accessories) was free to me, and for the cost of a reground crank and some gaskets, this is all I've spent on parts. I chose to run a mechanical pump on purpose because I didn't want to run an electric.

Up until now, I've not had any issues with throwing of belts-IF using Magnum accessories is my only choice, then I guess the car will be down until such time I can actually locate all the pieces.

Surely someone else out there has dropped a carbed Magnum 5.2 into their A body and kept v-belt driven accessories...anyone?
