ALSO word of wisdom...the rod for braking HAS to be lengthened by about 3/4" to work with a 23mm MC and the pipes that lead in from the reseviour(SP?) bent and the DAMN thing BARLEY FITS!!! but it will fit. Brake line bending is not as easy as it looks (yes I fronted for the $40 brake line kit on Ebay....)... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) I missed my pedal cluster pic but they are PURDY! having a cabinet sand blaster is DA BOMB!

OK so the project goes on and on and on and on and did I mention on?

#1- pic of my pretty rebuilt pedal cluster (I know you all couldn't wait!)
#2- pic of my "EZ wiring harness" (129 bucks? 12 circuit)
#3- Starting to install it and sort it and make a hot rod harness with an engine in the front fit a mid engined car! Harder than it looks!! As I go I slip 4' lengths of heat shrink over it and seal it up...hope I didnt make a mistake!!
#4-nice and NEAT down the tunnel....
#5-nice and neat in the engine bay.....
#6-nice and neat in the trunk....

Ok so I HAVE been working the last few days @ a JOB and a wee bit on the car...OMG! Sept 15th!!

So let me tell you the devil is in the details...SHEEZ! I thought it would be quick and simple BUT as I have once again learned the "custom" sheet takes time!

OK so I finished the oil cooler plumbing, as luck would have it the two bolts that held the old rear brake balancer were in just the right spot to put the bracket with the Mocal oil thermostat (I had to offset the bolt holes about 1/4") and the plumbing all fits in there even the adapters for AN fittings...just a little manicure of the rear quarter panel that will not be seen.

I also ran the HUGE battery cable and mounted the cutoff switch and lastly figured out a B E A utiful spot for the Crankfire setup. A few nylon spacers and it went right over the top of my harness mounting bolts/eyes....
