Mine is Van Nuys. But one could hope🤪

Mike (sonny) called me and we got it all figured out. I can put my old sensor in pass head and and run tcs through that. Every thing else in your instructions are correct Thanks for the help. Again Dennis

Thanks for that response. I am not sure how 70 runs the tcs I think a separate sensor on pass side of engine. On my 71 the temp sensor itself has two wires on go to it dark green- that goes to the harness firewall connector and to the cluster. I know that one. The second green w/ white stripe goes behind the booster to the tcs relay( I believe). I replaced the temp sensor with a single wire gauge sensor and now I don’t have a home for the green w/ white stripe wire. Do you know if I need to run another sensor somewhere or put the two prong sensor back in the engine. If I put the two wire back in I don’t think the temp gauge will read properly because they are two different type of switches. Any ideas. Thanks as usual

That’s what I thought on the extra brown. The only things left are the extra brown wire that came with the kit (I am almost sure tach). And the original temp sensor was a two wire. 1 will be for gauge but the second for tcs where does it go

As we are all aware certain sacrifices are made but family always comes first. As much as we all love are cars they are still cars and they can be replaced. I wish the best for you and your family.

Welcome. Looks like a great car to work with. The folks in this club are awesome and will try and help with any issues you have. They have helped me a bunch and I’m relatively new

Dennis I will pm you if needed but I think I’m close without bothering you thanks

So I repinned the harness connector to match instructions. 2 questions They sent me a 4 ft brown wire that I assume is for the tach? (Instructions say white). I have a leftover brown wire (alt) that doesn’t have a home. What do I do with that? Temp sensor had two wires ( green and green w/white stripe). I bought a gauge sensor for 1 wire but now after searching in the forum and reading about the tcs do I need both wires on the temp sensor and not put in the single wire sensor. Ok sorry 3 questions. Thanks as always

I know the position is correct because mine is the same. But I think gm should have put it in the center of the pleat. Just for looks.

I know one. Me🤔

I order a new SS cluster from “sonny” and I had them add a volt gauge instead of amps. You guys are correct the instructions suck but now that I paid the bill I cannot get a return call. I know someone rewrote the information in normal people English if someone could tell me where that is posted I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance Dennis

Awesome work

O the sweet smell of cob webs and burning paint. I can’t wait till I get to that point. That means she’s getting close 👍

Ya I’ll agree with that

I like the turbine look. Different yet still really cool. Nice job

Ah just some humor. Everyone needs it. Great work on the kids Monte. Looks awesome

Between covid quarenteen and “in stock” we’re gone to run out QUICK

That could be a new drinking game. In stock. Drink

Welcome. Love the deep green

If you had your panels recovered wouldn’t the switch hole still be in the cardboard(like) panel?

It’s all about self satisfaction. Looks awesome. I hope I have that kind of patience when I start mine

He was the man

Welcome and sweet looking ride

Thanks but it’ll be a loooooong project. Funds dictate progress. I am going to do a complete frame off as true to original as possible minus the obvious parts we can’t get anymore ( exhaust. Gardner). The interior will be changed to tach and gauges and buckets as correct as possible for 71. I will probably start a new post at some point as by that time I won’t be a newbie anymore. Thanks for the interest Dennis

Thank you
