    I just installed the AAW wiring and there is a pink / light green wire from the harness.   There are also neutral safety wires in that branch, but you shouldn't need those, I didn't even run them to the transmission.  My understanding for that type of shifter, you need a Hurst Back-Up Light Switch, and you would connect those two wires to that.  I have a T5z, so mine had a different type pigtail than you would have.

    Thx kblagron. Trying to find a picture of how that switch bracket connects to the transmission. I might just buy it and check out the directions

    I’m just finishing up my vintage air installation and just want to verify some connections. Heater core outlet (top) to vintage air valve to water pump. Manifold outlet to heater core inlet (bottom). I included a picture of a bracket I made to mount the vintage air valve to. Any issues with running the hoses this way?Thanks for the help…Rich

    Update. Since I couldn’t find what I was looking for I made these boxes and mounted them. The rear quarters already had holes cut in them so I will paint the grilles and put them back in. I couldn’t find the electrical info to know the correct size of box but I think this will work fine. If not they can always be ported at the bottom. I’ll post pics once the grilles are painted. They are 6 1/2” speakers.

    the chrome is good on my reverse light assembly but the bulb sockets are rusted really bad. do they make a bulb assembly by itself or do I have to buy the whole thing?  Also my car didn't come with a dome light. I would like to add one so is there a factory bracket that may be under the headliner to attach the light to?  I couldn't feel one under the headliner.

     

    TIA....Rich

    So I'm almost done with my rewire and I'm wondering what to do next.  The under carriage is done, re-wire is almost complete (with dakota digtial gauges) and no interior.  I have all the pieces but I'm waiting to install until its painted.  The last guy that worked on the car used under coating spray on the engine bay (without my approval) so I need to remove that and repaint.  Should I order a crate engine and repaint the engine bay (chassis black) first or do all the body work and paint the car first?  I'm worried about scratching the car so that's why I'm leaning toward repainting the engine bay then installing the engine first.  Just wondering what experiences and opinions you guys have.  Also, if anyone knows of a good engine builder in Colorado please let me know. TIA......Rich

    Here are some pics. I don't have the top radiator hold down bolted to the radiator support and there is about 3/4" before it even touches it. You can see that the mounting area for the shroud touches the radiator fins already. That is where I'm thinking about cutting it. I could then move the radiator in quite a bit. IMG_8256.thumb.JPG.86d7dab93e4e0d2fe36091ffcb0f7692.JPGIMG_8256.thumb.JPG.86d7dab93e4e0d2fe36091ffcb0f7692.JPGIMG_8257.thumb.JPG.0be5e6c1de00971f85e635485593b475.JPGIMG_8256.thumb.JPG.53f252c6019c117486c6d7252105609d.JPG

    talked to CVF and they said that pump/pulley combo is only available for the V belt system. I got a hold of MTF and they mentioned they've had this issue before. The shroud mounting tabs also interfere with the radiator and them rub on the fins.  Their solution was to cut off the mounting tabs and some of the radiator support to add extra clearance.  I'm going to cut the metal back to where it is rounded and that should give me enough room. This is a 6 cylinder sportsroof that is being heavily modified so I'm okay with that. thanks everyone for the help. posted my solution in case anyone else runs into this..........Rich

    okay, so I bought the CVF serpentine pulley system and the mustangs to fear radiator with electric fans. I didn't have the pulley system installed before the fan came in so I didn't have time to measure. Well the measurement from the pulleys to the radiator support (fan shroud mounting location) is 6 1/2" and the fans/radiator depth is 6 3/8".  I'm wondering if I can fix this with motor mounts or if anyone else has a radiator/fan setup that will work?  Any suggestions or ideas are greatly appreciated...........I know...... I should have measured before I bought both items....TIA...Rich

    I was having issues with PS pump that came with my Unisteer rack and pinion on my original v-belt system.  I could not get the pulley to line up. I'm going to use the CVF Racing pulley kit and will probably also use their Saginaw PS pump so everything lines up. Do you know what the PSI its rated for? If its a low flow than I believe CVF makes a regulator to drop the pressure if need be. Can you post a picture of your pump and I'll see if my Unisteer is the same one?
