Ok keep me in mind, what color and condition is the vinyl in? Part of the appeal of the original posters was it matches the pearl white. Ha I'm probably weird for wanting to go from buckets to bench.

Did you get rid of your bench ? I'm actually looking to to the reverse, go from bucket to bench.

So did you have to unhook the headers, lift the engine, etc?

This may be a dumb idea, but could you get a tubing bender on it and turn it toward the box? Also how was the install, been thinking about doing the same but it's going to be a tight fit with the headers. Did you have to take the motor out or lift it up?

Picked a replacement up from carquest and they gave me the same looking one. I wonder if it's a catch all for several vehicles.

This is what's on it now, it looks like the first of the pictures you sent. The green wire that's clipped looks to be clipped on the other end too up by the firewall.

Sorry it doesn't register.

I can't get the image of the diagram to load, basically the only additional thing wired in now is the carb choke on the IGN side. The fan was wired into the FLD side.

Ok so I tested the regulator and it reads close to 12 at the battery and the IGN side with the key on. The FLD does register. The car is dead now and won't start, I'll get it on the charger. I'm thinking it has to be the regulator that's causing it not to charge right? Here's pics of the...

Ok which one of these would be the best option to just go back stock for now. Eventually, I want to convert to electronic since the alt is already in place and it seems like a conversion a lot make...

Hmm, you could be onto something. I wonder if the car sat for an extended period and developed what you are referring to. Both times the overheat happened was after i had been driving for 45 min+. I was going to flush it, but I wonder if I should get it flushed or just get a new one.

Thank you for the advice. So here's how my evening went, the alt voltage regulator must be fried because the battery didn't charge so I had to jump the car to get it back in the garage. Well another issue the previous owner didn't share was the broken hood hinge, car fired up, hood slammed onto...

Ok I'm going to grab a cap this evening. What I'm concerned about is I had power at the alternator regulator F side when the key was on and now I don't. This is how the fan was wired, it had a fused power wire that hooked into the F side. Fan stopped running and no power at that terminal.
