    the wire harness sensor has both plug types (see pic) im guessing i could use either one on the wire harness? or should i swap the round sensor and put the square sensor on the motor going in?

    Engine 302 to 302 swap (motor removal/install)

    HCI 302 has a bad piston ring or valve stem seal....leaning towards piston ring. So i figure i will pull it out and rebuild it slowly.. the stock motor is going in because ca smog is a pain in the ass and i want to be able to drive the car while the motor is getting rebuilt

    Fox Coupe Trunk Lid Aligning

    I had the passenger side one on, but I don't have a driver side one, still closed lower on the passenger side. I took it off and and still closed the same. I don't think the rubber bumper I had one was even doing anything to aid in the alignment.

    Exhaust Leak At O2 Bung

    Alright ran compression....by cylinder in numerical order 140/140/144/150/142/140/142/however number 8 does not hold pressure. It will go up as the car is cranked (up to about 160 or so, then when we stop cranking, the gauge pressure drops slowly to zero). We did the test to #8 a few times, same...
