Jeff thanks for verifying the snorkle. Regarding the tab go to eBay and type in 68 mustang snorkle. Three will pop up. Look for 302 4V snorkle under Mag Mustang and Andy showed quite a few shots of the snorkle. Even has the stamped number on it. You will see what I meant by tab. Thanks for answering my specific question. Looks like NPD has some 390 decals so may have to go that route.

Bob here is what I did with the vacume stem. Does it look close?

Yes ,but you will probably want to use some pipe sealer to prevent leaks. After it is installed use a pick to get out as much visible sealer and then after it is set up brush touchup paint to cover up any indication of sealer. Bob

I used teflon tape but only put it low on the treads so it isn't visible. Builder seemed to have used clear silicone as I cleaned most of it off. Wondering if the color I used for the stem is ok and if the light dusting of blue is also acceptable.

Yes, it looks fine from the pics. Bob

Great. I had to improvise with the stem color as i didn't have any of the eastwood paint which you mentioned. Used a gold as a base and then lightly dusted it with a green. Liked the way it looked so I used the same dusting technique on the brass portion after I painted the exposed threads blue.
