Vintage Air Hose Routing and the Battery Shut off is in the way. (( 03-19-23 ))
 
Well, sometimes things don't go as planned.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...f4c8a21-me.jpg

I had the battery disconnect on the Negative terminal and since it hangs so low it actually hits the hoses.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...552e79c-me.jpg

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...7ad749d-me.jpg

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...b28b955-me.jpg

I think I found the solution.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...ff452e1-me.jpg

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...21880e0-me.jpg

Next up is the battery hot wire.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...029d3be-me.jpg

I ran the ground wire under the battery tray which will eventually be wrapped in a TechFlex Abrasion wrap to protect the wire.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...f880575-me.jpg

Building the new ground wire.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...aa721d7-me.jpg

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...56a4230-me.jpg

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...233b288-me.jpg

Originally I had the positive wire secured to the chassis and now it looks like it is going to be the ground wire.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...d42d593-me.jpg

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...7229435-me.jpg

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...b3004be-me.jpg

Still trying to figure out the Positive wire routing.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...c50cd8a-me.jpg

Holy **** it works.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...ccb1d8b-me.jpg

Plenty of space.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...7155c7f-me.jpg

Now I just need to find a cool way to secure the hoses together.

More questions about the label maker.... what labels are you using? Is it actually a tube that you are sliding over the wire then the clear heat shrink over that?
Saw the link for the actual label maker.....

The good news is you’re printing directly on the heat shrink. Then you slide the clear heat shrink over the shrunk printed yellow heat shrink.

Week of March 19th - Task List (( 03-19-23 ))
 
You all know I like my lists so I made another one for this week.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...400b2a2-me.jpg

First up I am finally securing the heaters hose in the inner fender.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...c5cda49-me.jpg

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...8cc7054-me.jpg

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...e1349c2-me.jpg

Now that I have all the pieces I need to make the connection I just need the balls to cut the hoses.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...6840edc-me.jpg

Well I couldn't do it so I moved on to the battery ground wire that is now neatly tucked under the battery tray.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...c5a7f7f-me.jpg

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...7e360b9-me.jpg

With the battery wire sitting so close to the lower radiator hose I decided to wrap it in DEI Heat Wrap.

I am pulling power and lights on from the headlight switch for the clock.

It has been a long long time since I center stripped a wire.

What’s nice with the simplicity of your build is that on a road trip you can pull into any Chevy dealer if you need repairs!

Battery Hot Protection (( 03-21-23 ))
 
Due to the location of the Battery Hot Wire I am going wrap a small area of the wire in DEI Heat Wrap and will
then add a thin abrasion wrap to protect the wire and make it black so it disappears in the engine bay.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...9b508d5-me.jpg

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...398699c-me.jpg

I am going to shorten the DEI Heat wrap and install the abrasion wrap once it gets past the lower radiator hose.

Holley Digital Dash Wiring - 2 Days Later (( 03-28-23 ))
 
I finally had time to get back out in the garage and work on the car.

It's all going in for the last time I hope. (( 04-01-23 ))
 
Here we go !!!

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...ea0fa48-me.jpg

First up is to install the Vintage Air Unit.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...a74e717-me.jpg

Since I have no hair on my head I started wearing a very thin skull cap from Headsweat. It's not a true Bump Cap so l am calling
it a Tap Cap as it gives me warning that I am about to hit my head on something.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...49751c5-me.jpg

I sprayed the drain hose with WD40 Silicone to help it slide through the floor drain grommet.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...091db8a-me.jpg

Of course the fun part is installing all of the nuts.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...977ccbe-me.jpg

It's hopefully hanging for the last time.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...956bf8c-me.jpg

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...9abaaeb-me.jpg

I double nutted the Relay's to make sure they don't fall off. I had planned to use a Nylock nut like I did on the other's but felt it might be brutal to have to remove while laying under the dash.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...e5290e8-me.jpg

I am stilling trying to decide if I am going to run the Neutral Safety Switch wiring under the carpet. However, I am going to use the Orange & White wire for my under dash lighting.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...1c44832-me.jpg

A small feeling of accomplishment

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...bb97729-me.jpg

Holy Crud that is a mess of wires.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...e9d4c9c-me.jpg

A long long time ago I made this really cool bracket to mount the Holley ECU and today hopefully will be the last time I hold it in my hand.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...bab536b-me.jpg

Since the top two bolts will be difficult to reach I am just going to install studs to support the ECU. I am even add wing nuts.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...cb8252c-me.jpg

Test Fitting the bracket.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...dd537d9-me.jpg

So this is strange the outside studs are metric and the inside studs are standard.

Not any more !!!

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...b06fb96-me.jpg

I noticed the outside edges of the leather needed some adhesive so I decided to tackle this small project and call it a night.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...e6ef1ba-me.jpg

If you don't own a pair of these I suggest you buy a pair as they will precisely cut paper and then cut thin
sheet metal. I have been using these for months and they still work like new.

One Day Later Dash Pad Install...Finally !!! (( 04-05-23 ))
 
This is big as the blue tape is finally coming off the metal part of the dash.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...d056188-me.jpg

I loosely installed all of the clips to make it easier to install the dash pad.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...2564328-me.jpg

Remy picture for Skip.

We all know what he is thinking "When is he going to finish this car !!! "

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...8967515-me.jpg

I gently placed the dash in the car since I will be doing it solo.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...768abb1-me.jpg

I tried to physically push the dash pad in to engage the clips and that didn't work at all. So, I moved to Plan B and removed
the all of the clips except the two middle clips. This allowed me to push the dash pad in and fell like it wasn't going to fall on
me while I laid under the dash and put the clips in and then slid the studs into the clips. It's very important not to tighten
any of the nuts till all of the clips are installed.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...db53a68-me.jpg

Well it looks like I am going to illuminate the Fasten Seat Belt Light as I like how it looks.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...d3886ec-me.jpg

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...6105b4a-me.jpg

Last few nuts are now tight and I did install Nylock nuts over the nuts to make sure they don't come loose.

Looking in where the Dash surround will be I am very happy with my wiring as it is all easily accessible.

Time to start slowly trimming down the surround.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...50ad4c2-me.jpg

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...372a147-me.jpg

As you can see I removed a lot of material.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...feb614f-me.jpg

I need to enlarge the hole in the headlight switch and ended up pulling out the special drill bits to get it nice and tight.

These are the sharpest drill bits I have ever used and if you run your finger over them it will definitely cut them.

Classic Dash Final Install (( 04-07-23 ))
 
Quick trip to the local Ace Hardware from more supplies

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...51c0c95-me.jpg

I needed to pick up a piece of flat stock so I could install the dash surround as the holes don't line up and also need a spacer.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...689f412-me.jpg

I can't believe I haven't removed the steering wheel as it is been in the way so many times !!!

Time to trim more of the Classic Dash Surround

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...a498f5a-me.jpg

Funny story. I was at the Doctor a couple of weeks ago and the Dermatologist used this little marker
on leg. Since I love Green & Blue I asked her if I could have the marker since they have to throw it out after they use
it. She said yes and thankfully I had it as I tried ever marker I had to mark the hole that I need to drill and nothing
worked. I decided to look in my truck and I found it and it worked perfectly.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...37b378e-me.jpg

I mounted the bracket to the dash bracket with a nut and bolt (sorry no picture) however before i installed I screwed the
sheet metal screw into so it would be easier to install the surround.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...9648a45-me.jpg

Surround is in !!!

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...c9aa9e2-me.jpg

Now for the rest of the stuff.

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...6de9a81-me.jpg

First Up is the headlight switch and if you guys have any ideas as what I can use to fill the hole below the switch I would love suggestions.

I know it looks crooked it's just an illusion

http://garagescene.net/_data/i/uploa...3be13d8-me.jpg

Da !!!! Next make sure you install the retaining bracket before you plug everything in.

Holley GPS Wire (( 04-07-23 ))
 
While I was cleaning up I notice the GPS Signal wire as not in such a great place. My plan is to wrap the
wire in TechFlex abrasion wrap to protect it.

MJ-Really like the yellow striping on your R…

https://i.postimg.cc/sfBg0pNj/789844...4-E44-D2-A.jpg

As far as what goes in the hole in your dash, how about making this emoji functional…:G-Dub: Just press it every time you think of something else the ‘70 needs…and it automatically sends $500 to Holley, ARP etc.


:P

Thank you and now I need the black mirrors & gills

Agreed.:thumbsup:

Man I'm so happy to see the blue tape exiting the scene!!

Great job Marty!

After you get the dash together, might want to calibrate the vintage air controls to make sure you're getting full sweep of all the stepper motors in the base. If you have a gen IV setup, follow this procedure, had to use it recently on a car I was working on. Doesn't matter if you have the knob setup or factory style, calibration is calibration.:thumbsup:

Cayman Project
 
I will be honest the 35k I spent on the Cayman has to be the best money I have ever spent. However, it did slow the progress of the Camaro and thank you for the kind words.
