I did some testing... and I was wrong how the ECU works (i'll update my earlier post) I got 1 v on the neg side and less than 12 V (started off at 11 then quickly dropped to 5 as the ballast heated up) on the positive side with key in the run position. I concede that the ECU grounds the coil...

67 has many 1 year only parts, 68 has some wonky parts like the dash pad under the dash, 69 is mostly back to simplicity, plus the 67 is super classic design for the GT trim, 68 has the cool round turn signal lights.

I have seen fiberglass insulation but no asbestos like material. Perhaps in some electronic insulation but I suspect it's bakelite Please let us all know what if anything is found. I guess there could be asbestos dust form the late 90s brake pads and shoes

Rule of thumb. If it was bolted to the engine before paint it got painted engine color.

ma maybe they can send you a paper template and you can check it. That would increase their offerings! BUT 65.00 is pretty steep. I use my old ones, traced and cut them out.

If you have one to follow they are easy to make out of heavy mill ( 4-6mill) plastic sheeting If you don't have one, get a photo of one installed and that will guide you on what gets covered and what doesn't. don't forget the tail that tucks into...

have you taken into account the body raising do to the weight of the engine being removed from it

if you decide to do it, do it to a 69 Dart

Maybe it's supposed to be a calf? I think they sold you the wrong thing.

I'm fairly certain that the ECU output to the coil is not grounded with power applied to the ECU regardless of where the reflector is positioned. Its looking for a signal to trigger the transistor it go to ground for the prescribed amount of time to get the dwell it is programmed for. without...

Many older filters of all sorts were "oil soaked" they had a steel wool type filter material then coated in oil to catch the debris / dust. Look in 60 and older FSMs for cleaning procedures. All brands used them.

You could also remove the metal bracket from the engine. What I typically have done is unbolt the mount from the car.

The firewall front inner fenders and core support are the same on all A bodies of the time. so the parts needed changing are front fenders, hood, maybe the front hood lock support and related parts, the front door skins did valentine have a hard top? If not that's a tougher thing to do you...
