Just a bit.
I was hoping to hear back from Holley this week as the ECU got there on Tuesday but no such luck.

Interesting. I've never seen a booth like that.

Going to call Holley again tomorrow.
They tell me the ECU is fine but I've been over all the wiring for continuity, terminal location and no backed out terminals 4 times along with 3 oxygen sensors and it just reads a flatline in the ECU data.
I've posted my program GCF and a data log on the Holley forum and there's some legit smart dudes on there and I think every other thing has been exhausted as far as possible issues.

I'll loan u my 327 chevy v8 with reman quadrajet. Was the 327 chevy an engine option when that car was new?

Yup, 327 was an option on that car in 67

The Bubba scored some diagnostic tools.

Looks expensive, but handy.

Operation NP205 is kinda a success. The case is in the truck, one needle bearing bit the dust and was swapped out and the guts are so-so but for now it'll work. There was a wee bit of surface rust on a few gears but I cleaned them as best I could and a whole new gear set isn't in the budget. For now the gears should self-clean after a fashion and I'll change the oil in the t-case pretty soon to "flush" out the contaminants. Not ideal, but it's for my truck that I don't really use that much and it's a risk I'm willing to take. I had to get creative, the vent bung was rusted shut so I used the cut off stub of the speedo cable as my new vent. The Dana 24 cable and NP205 cables don't interchange when I want to get a working speedometer I'll need to source a cable adapter and actually drill out the vent bung.

Just a heads up should u decide to dig a little deeper, the usa standard gear np 205 rebuild kits are very well priced. Can usually be had for $200 and under. Everything is tighly shrink wrapped.

If u check out the big country np205 guru at moonshine mafia motorsports, u can see he has stacks of usa standard gear boxes. 1000's of used np 205 parts too.

Yep I hear yah on gears. Found a new old stock 10 spline output for $75 free shipping to AK. Paypal.........engage.
