Don't be. We are fully invested. It was a miss. There a lot of things to try and get right and it's not suprising that that happened. There was concern when we realized it, about welding to a closed space with sound deadener in there. No doubt your comment prompted a lot more discussion about should we and how should we. In the end, nothing caught on fire and it's a mistake we don't have to live with. Those boys working on that cab are good.

This board offers inspiration in many forms. And I appreciate it all.

Here is the low mile 1970 K20 with 307 from BAT. This tube is 1970 only, as 1971-72 tubes have the rubber cap.

If you zoom and enhance the BAT K20, it looks like the 71-72 tube and has the "OIL" labeled rubber cap (to me).

I don't doubt you. Super intrigued actually. Lot of little mysteries (still) to me with these 70s. So much one year only stuff.
