Still need fuel pump, hE, alt, gaskets l, throttle cable, all bolts, water pump setup, IAt ext
And need all hoses, lines, brackets and fitting to hold everything.
What am I missing?
I feel like I've forgotten everything I have researched
Check out www.car-parts.com for the cables and brackets. Search for Harley & lightning trucks. Unless someone is doing a part out, they're hard to find. I may be able to get you the bolts from a guy on the FB page. If I run across anything else, I'll let you know. Owe you one for find on the 6lb lower anyways!

Www.car-parts.com is the site. I searched for an alternator in the south east and located a salvage yard that had a wrecked harley. They had already pulled the engine, but they had the throttle & cc cables with the bracket.

I ended up getting a pair of Walbro 255's with stainless Y with the hat from a guy on LR doing a part out. Also ended up getting all the bolts, vacuum assembly, alternator bracket and pillar pods from him.

Searched for a 2000 f150 alternator. When you search it will ask you which engine. That's when you narrow it down.

Search for an alternator. Then call the yard that has it and inquire about the rest
