The Speartech harness runs the fuel injection and the transmission. The Accuair does have it's own harness as well, but not quite as complicated. It's a wiring lover's dream,

.

List of wiring projects:

Body harness
Fuel injection
Air management system
Heated seats
Autometer gauges
Dual electric fans
Cruise control
Intermittent wipers
Alarm system
A/C
Stereo.....

Man that Sub is sweeet! Where did you get the pass. side inlet/outlet rad from? Whats your take on Speartech so far? I cant make up my mind between Speartech or Current Performance.

Frizzle Fry · 05-02-2010, 06:29 PM

Rack looks amazing!

72BlckButy · 05-02-2010, 09:56 PM

Lookin' good Rob!

19723DR · 05-02-2010, 10:50 PM

That rack looks sweet.

Now I feel the peer pressure to put one of those on mine.

Number98 · 05-03-2010, 08:12 PM

Umm.... I heard that rack was stolen from another member.....

BB72CHEVKT · 05-03-2010, 08:53 PM

I bet you would have never thought you would have guys telling you that you have a nice rack, but they do have a point!

big_al_71 · 05-03-2010, 09:41 PM

likaroc13 · 05-04-2010, 12:55 AM

It's an Entropy radiator. The guys sells them off of ebay. It was pricey, but it makes running the hoses a little cleaner and it should keep the S/C cool,

. The Speartech harness is very nice. John made some modifications for me to incorporate the Magnacharger so everything should fit and work well togther.

Not much new progress. I've been finishing some details on the 68 trying to get it ready for a leg or two of the 2010 Power Tour and today I'm heading to Va Bch for a week to deliver this 67 Corvette Convertible for a buddy of mine. Wouldn't this make a nice garage mate for the Burb????!!!!! If I only had an extra $35K............

mike nutt · 05-11-2010, 06:03 AM

Rob ,
what legs of the power tour are you planning on making ?

Hopefully next time I'll be able to run by. I would love to make a trip up in the Burb at some point....

Small progress, but progress none the less. I've been focusing on the 68 trying to get it ready for the last leg of the PowerTour, but I did get my upper and lower hoses figured out. I just need to work on the radiator mounts and then the cooling system will be done. I picked up some adapters from Docs Blocks for the a/c also. Looks like they will have to be modified slightly to make them work, but what else is new....
