Gotta love GM. They were so good at making most of their stuff interchange between the different makes. Can't say that about Ford.....
Yes - I really liked your write-up! Different way to skin the cat and I'd probably used your templates if I didn't like that silly little green/yellow/red sweep on the original. I got the breaks in the right place, but I think the red is a little too bright. Was kinda hard to tell the exact color to match it was so faded, but green-yellow-red made the most sense. I SHOULD have used flat on the yellow/red though... oops. It'll fade. I hope.
