ummm...what about it? new bracket?

:AA:

 

New position, nice job, very clean and tidy!

 

Diggin' on the corks, too.

 

oh right! relocation..yeah that cork is funny..i was like "of all thing's to block it with.." i would have went with a large vac cap or black tape.

:AA:

 

Ray,

Clean set up as always but do yourself a favor and ditch the fusible links and put some 2nd gen fuses in there. :-)

 

they dont look like they've been touched to me..of course i've been up since 9am yesterday and have been working since 7pm last night so my judgement could be a little askew..

 

Dave is right of course, those 25 year old fusible links are in the original stock location, nothing changed at all and I've never had one go bad. I just clean them up once in awhile and straighten the wires so they have nice parallel loops. The 2nd gen coil is an add on, along with the corks from my lab to plug the holes in the dizzy and stock coil that aren't used with the 2GDFI. (I can switch back to stock ignition in about 30 seconds).

The old fashioned fusible links are just a detail I've always liked about the 1st gen, kind of quaint and pretty, unlike those ugly plastic links from the 2nd gens.

Like Dave I had been working all day (mowing the grass, not chasing crooks like Dave) and I needed to do something more interesting.

 

What's the thing under battery tray?

 

That's a piece of 1/2" plywood underneath the stock battery tray to raise the slightly undersized battery a bit so the battery tie down works properly. Without the plywood the tie down doesn't fit right.

 

From you I would expect hand rubbed walnut

 

great job!....

 

I'll check the shed to see if I have a piece of hardwood, it would make a nice upgrade.

Thanks for the compliments folks!

 

Very nice Ray! Looks great, lovin the corks too!

 

Hey TT, haven't heard from you forever. PM me an address, I'll send you a set of corks for your 2GDFI.
