starting on the wiring job....

taking on the wiring task as has been so thoroughly described on alan horvath's site(thanks again,alan!) ......gonna try to get the starting capabilities sorted out first,and then go to the easier and less difficult areas to access..(taillights,dome, headlights,...etc.) picked up a pretty nifty little tool to help w/ the heat-shrink of the wiring connectors. it's a pencil butane torch....will melt the protective coating at the wiring ends so you can get the connectors on as well as heat shrinking the rubber to form a protective seal for the wiring connection. also, the local chevy dealership has been very useful in coming up w/ the much needed connectors (like headlight switch plug) to make this a much easier and neater job. some of the electrical connectors are not the everyday stuff you can get off the parts store shelves... gonna turn in so i can get at it as early as possible.2nd shifters kinda happen to sleep later!
