Hey --- That blue tape.... that stuff is rated for "days" on -- not months.... just saying ---- you might want to try to peel some of it off.... cause it can be a real you know what when it goes south! It's a paper back and doesn't like to come off in strips once its gone bad.
You can leave the green on for FAR longer... than the blue. But then it also costs 4 X's as much. But so do parts.
Hmmm... I did not know that! I learned something new today... guess I should stock up on the green stuff.
Thanks Brad! Ironworks gets the nod for pulling off Desmonds design. Took some tweaking and finishing on my part to get it said and done, but it's finally there!
Although still far from from done, it's time for the yearly update. Been plugging away on it just haven't updated anything in quite a while.
Since the last update I have mounted the evaporator, AAW Panel, Big Stuff 3 ECM, seats, gas pedal, brake pedal, steering column and working on E-brake set up now. Using a Control Cables pedal assembly. It is mounted on the far left (normal place) Like most late model cars it is a push on/ push off function. No release handle. Looks slick and OEM style. By the time I was able to get everything packaged under the dash real estate went away real quick. I wanted to mount the coils under the dash as well - but was told to make sure I mounted them as far away from the ECM as possible (thanks Jody). Due to space constraints I was not able to locate a good spot under the dash. So after looking for alternate locations I ended up mounting them outside under the radiator cradle. Everything is only tacked. Once I take it apart the final welding will be all tigged. I will have to make my own spark plug wires and coil harnesses but no big deal. I had to run wires forward anyways for the crank trigger and fans. I will run them down low parallel with the oil pan and drop them in their appropriate locations. The cover I made to hide & protect them looks low being below the frame - but I have already mocked up the front bumper and does not come close to hanging below that. More to follow......
