Back to the top. 

Very frustrating knowing there are a few of these out there and not one of you that have them actually own a car that was originally built with one.  Gotta love you guys............

Is the big block wiring different than small block?  I have an original harness that there is no splice, the wire from the gauge goes all the way to the sending unit.  It has an eyelet opening, not push-on.  The repro harness on the car also has a single wire, but with a push-on 90 degree end.  The original Mustang wire harness has the oil sender just taped back.

Yes different big vs. small block. Big block spliced with push on, small block 1 new uncut wire with eyelet.

Oh..
I forgot to ask...

How the hell do they expect you to go under the dash and then do a complete 45% and then reach up ?

Remove the seat or get someone much younger to do it.

That's cool, JD. Anybody else have any cool stories about the car?

Yes. I have a few. Busy maybe later.

I have had DOT 5 in my KR for 27 years with no leaks. Mind you it has only accumulated about 100 miles in that time. I rebuilt the M/C, wheel cylinders, and calipers with no sleeves. It also retains the original brake hoses. I would not use DOT 5 for high performance driving and definitely not in an ABS application. Converting to DOT 5 you must remove 100% of the old DOT3/4 fluid! I would use DOT 5 in a rarely driven show car and DOT 3 or 4 in a driven car. You might want to check out DOT 5.1 fluid also.

How did you contain yourself??

I have other distractions. Other cars and toys. I really wanted another Shelby also that wasn't so nice that I could drive hard. Maybe some day?

I do look in that under dash area when judging. I would make a deduction (and have) for excessive paint/primer under the dash. As for your car not receiving a deduction for this at Indy We just must have missed it. The lighting was poor and apparently We didn't look at that area hard enough.

I bought it when I was 31. I am almost (2 days short) 10 years older than 02267.
