You can look in the originality and history section for a lot of engine bay pics. Just remember that they will be stock.
Looking at your pictures I see a lot of rust. Have you checked out the longs and hell hole? You may be better off droping the engine/trans and cleaning everything up good and rewiring/rehosing with the engine out of the bay. So much easier to work on. Then when you have it all sorted, it shouldn't be too much trouble to get the idle straightened out. This is what I did to mine as it wasn't running very well when I first got it. I found and repaired a lot of bad wires and connections, but when I pulled the tin I got my biggest surprise. Lots of "stuff" up under the tins blocking cooling air. With everything I found repaired and the engine back in, it ran great. So those bad wires and connections really made a difference. Plus it looks really nice now and clean too. While the engine is out, you can better address the rust issues. Good luck, Tom |
