That looks like a great start. Nice and compleet. Dont be afraid of the gas heater, it wont blow up. IT is infact a very, very (excuse the pun) COOL piece to have in a T3. Lots of stuff to read up on and get famiular with. You should get like 65 hp from that motor when running right. Good luck, nice score!

Sweet Score (for a square)

Since no one else has said it.
CHECK and/or REPLACE ALL YOUR FUEL LINES
Buy the Robert Bentley manual (if you haven't already)

You are at the right place for all your Type 3 needs.

Welcome.

Good Score. As for the gas heater, I have the manuals up on my web site for most of the heaters. Eberspacher, and SouthWind.
