    Swapping Switches???

    Ahh yes the old "melted wire situation" Seems every II has that problem. The way I fixed it was to take the load off the switch... By wiring in a relay. So now when you move the climate control switch from off, it send the switch's power to the relay to turn on the power to the fan switch.

    Headers and Engine Install???

    Just a quick tip, I had a problem with header gaskets somtimes blowing out, all that ended when I started to coat anti seize on both sides of the gasket, no more blow outs, and the gaskets come off easy.

    Most people say an x pipe makes more power, but I'm a follower of KISS... "keep it simple stuipd" I dunno how big the x pipe is, or how it will fit in a II, the H pipe was easy, and works.

    The car has a full exhaust system (homemade) the H pipe is a summit generic one, 2.5 inch in diameter, with mandral bends, and hooker max flow mufflers. The car has a super distinct sound, I dunno what gives it the tone, since a buddy had a chevelle with the same mufflers, and it doesn't sound...

    MT Sportsman Pro tires feel....

    I'm running hoosier quick time pro tires, I had no tubes, but due to hard launches, the rim was slipping inside the tire. 30psi in them seems like alot, I'm only running 15psi in mine with tubes, and rim screws. I don't know if running these tires on the freeway is a good idea, for the reasons...

    No slips yet, I'll have some at the end of May, too many mods to list, 302, DSS pistons, isky cam, AFR 165 heads, headman headers, homemade exhust, stealth intake, 750 holley carb, etc... the whole point of the car is to give it a sleeper look, still running hubcaps, even found some identical...

    removed the spare tire area

    Since I never have had a spare in the darn thing I thought that by cutting out the spare tire well area would give me some much needed room under the car. By doing this, a fuel cell can be mounted in the center of the car, the exhaust is easy to get to come out both sides, etc... I have other...

    Transmission/driveshaft pics.

    looks like a clean install. Are you running a mechanical clutch linkage, or did you convert over to a hydraulic setup?

    Man, What a pain! 351W

    I kinda ran into some of the issues with my 302 this winter. I put on a milodon 8 qt pan, thus I had to use a mini starter, and then the pan would hit the manual rack and pinion. I solved this problem by building some spacers to space the engine up 1/2 an inch, yet then this caused problems...

    Towing a C4?

    The reason why your not suppose to tow an automatic, is that when the engine is not running, the transmission pump is not pumping lube to critical areas. So a short runs like around the block would be fine, but 11 miles, I would pull the driveshaft off.

    c-4

    The only difference is, that some earlier C4 transmissions had different dipstick locations. The earlier years had the dipstick that went into the pan, it actually attached on the side of the tranny pan. Later C4 transmissions had the dipstick go through the case right behind the bellhousing...

    would anyone be interested in a LH (drivers side) solid motor mount

    Why only the left? That's the one that I kept stretching the rivit on. I got tired of paying $80 at ford in the mid 90s for a mount.

    would anyone be interested in a LH (drivers side) solid motor mount

    I'd have to see what other poly motor mounts look like first to get an idea of how it should go together. Maybe a two piece mount with a poly bushing between them... hmm... I'd have to round up some stuff, let me think a bit about it. I have rebuilt stock motor mounts, and in place of the...
