Sweet ride!

If your goi g to be doing your own work I would strongly suggest buying or downloading a service manual.

For the pressure tests. You can buy a aluminum plug for the intake, commonly used for turbo cars blow off valve plug. Drill and thread if for a fitting. Get some flat steel stock to block off the exhaust. Use your manifold to mock up the steel, cut and drill as needed.

Klemm vintage sells a pressure test kit setup.

Cheers, Curtis
