Pulling a mustang dash isn't that hard... actually... it isn't all that hard im most cars. Have you seen an assembly line ?
That thing goes on a robotic arm with the dash harness in place and just sticks it in there. A few bolts later and it's down to the next station. Newer cars are even simpler.... guess I'm biased cause I do this for a living.

Got the strut tower brace installed today. Tomorrow I start installing the condenser, I need to find instructions on the AC line installation. I see Orings but what do I lube em with? Nothing? Gotta figure that out.
I used PAG oil when I did my system but after doing some googling it seems like that might be a bad idea since it pulls moisture. Several people recommended
"Nylog Blue" lubricant though and it shows as being R134a compatible: Amazon product ASIN B008HOSQQQView: https://www.amazon.com/Refrigeration-Technologies-RT201B-Gasket-Sealant/dp/B008HOSQQQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1535471358&sr=8-1&keywords=Nylog&th=1

So I have been tinkering with the ECU again... (go figure) I added some more functions because I can.
I now have a working Speed input and calibrated it, I tested it today and it is very accurate.
Also built but waiting on sensor tie in are the oil pressure and fuel level inputs. The circuits i built work great on the test bench so all I have to do is find and tie the fuel sender in.
I am really excited about having AC in the car for the first time, now when it rains I wont feel like dying.

Awesome Job!!!!!! You are getting everything all sorted and tested out aren't you. You got a lot more done than me then.
I understand the need for A/C as well. Hopefully that can get fixed for me next year. Fall is coming, but I know you dont know what that is.
