More blue tape with notes

On a side note I am considering having black rubber lines made with all OE fittings as it might look a little nicer.

AC Lines

So I am not one for not having a washer between the nut and sheet metal. So back to Ace Hardware to get a "Machine Bushing" which I will use as a washer.

I also ordered a much thicker version from McMaster Carr for the Coolant lines as they seem to put a little more pressure on the firewall.

I know its a little late but Gforce has a listing of all the critical dimensions of various transmission measurements. Hopefully you won't need them now.

Nice shop to work on your car and bikes! Your detailing is no OCD just a high standard you go by. I guess sometimes you feel like a nut and sometimes you don't, wait that's Almond Joy not Mounds.:)

Not a fan of how tight this line fits. It's like the line is about an inch to short. So this is going in the garbage and I will have to make a new line.

Thank you for the link as I really could of used it instead of taking everyone's word.

On a side note I am kinda "Mounds" guy as I love dark chocolate. Of course as you can see I am a little bit nutty.

Laying out the Holley Terminator X Engine Harness. (01-26-20)

http://www.garagescene.net/_data/i/u...2be19a8-me.jpg

I was a little board and didn't really feel like working on the car and I really wanted to ride but the weather sucked and the trails were closed. SO I put the bike rack back on the car.

http://www.garagescene.net/_data/i/u...cfec27d-me.jpg

Since my drivers door hinges is a little worn I figured this would be the best time to replace the hinges. So I put a small order together.

After looking at this picture it looks like I might have a problem.

I love these velcro strips as it makes storing stuff neatly very easy.

I finally found the correct Temp Coolant Switch that plugs into the Holley EFI (01-29-20)

http://www.garagescene.net/_data/i/u...ef27003-me.jpg

Not sure why I did this but many years ago someone taught me how to make hose clamps round again. It's pretty simple just tighten them around a socket and come back in about 5 minutes and they are round again.

Yep, More blue tape and this one has a reminder on it.

Is this a street car only? I ask because I know its really easy to boil power steering fluid during track days or autocross. A cooler would be a good idea in any case. I like the machine bushing idea for washers, I'm going to have to remember that.
