    Experience: Comp cams 268H in a stock 289

    When I first put on roller rockers I noticed the increased noise, I thought something was wrong and I readjusted them 3 times before taking them to a shop. I was told everything was fine, so I learned to live with it.

    I have to run the cable clutch against the header, how can I have it not melt?

    Help with transmission kick down

    My C4 won't shift from 2nd to 1st by itself unless you're travelling REALLY slow. I think it's just the nature of the C4.

    Radiator hoses Rerouted!!

    My dome light fuse keeps blowing, common short cct locations?

    The 7.5 amp fuse for the interior and dome lights keeps blowing on me, there must be a short somewhere because it blows when the lights should be off (Doors closed). This just started happening yesterday. Are there any common areas to check for a short circuit? TIA.
