    Well here is more of the wiring. In my red car I put everything under the seat, thinking everything in one place is good. I won't do that again. It makes it very hard to work on there are layers of wiring. So this time I have spread everything out, fuel pump, battery, and stereo in the back, all the buttons switches and lights and ignition switch is in the seat riser. The ECU is under the dash. Here are a few photo's. One of the red car for comparison.
    In the last photo starting on the left is the air conditioning controls, next is a 12 volt out let for Mama's phone, next is passengers power window switch, next is the button to open the cowl vent, then the button to open the license plate to fill the gas tank, then drivers power window switch, Matthew's 12 volt accessory for a Game Boy, ignition and headlight switches.

    That is really a lot more simple, isn't it? Not that the first one is not good, but I see what you mean about the crowding under there.

    Glad to see you are back from vacation and finally getting some work done on the new car.

    Thanks Don, did you get your new toys all put away or are you still admiring them?

    Very neat and tidy wiring job, as would be expected, considering your plumbing and neatness all around. GM never made anything that neat!

    You know I couldn't resist playing with them a little. I pulled the heads and intake off of the flathead to see what it looked like. Spins free and cylinder walls look very good. Dismantled the front suspension all the way and it looks equally good. Now I just have to store it all away for a while so I'm not diverted from my Dodge project.

    BTW, did you get your clutch issue fixed on the other car? How about that magneto rotor problem, is it now gone?
