I always start in neutral as well, but man, these things are $$ for something that just grounds the starter relay...is this something that one could make to get me buy during inspection until I can afford a legitimate one?

This year I had converted my 3 speed auto to a standard. It's September and time for me to go for an inspection. Here's what I'm wondering...did a '70 Dart come stock with a clutch safety switch, and if it didn't, does this mean they must overlook this during inspection? Thanks! Craig

The only person that has any real automotive knowledge is Tanner, I guess you could say Rutledge kinda...Adam couldn't even drive stick if I remember correctly in one of the challenges? Stand alone...it "alright, maybe entertaining" but because it tries to mimic the UK version, it sucks in...

Okay, so I tried the connection from the ignition part to the regulator to the pos of the battery and had gotten no change. All it did was go back down to 12.3 volts, connect the plug again and it jumps back up to 14.9-15.2. I don't understand, when the fans come on it goes down to like 13.1 and...

You don't happen to have pictures of the connections at the amp/sub do you?

I should have mentioned that I had done the ammeter bypass, I had cleared up a few electronic issues with that (I was blowing fusible links). I'll check those other things as you listed next. And when you say at the battery, that means negative of multimeter to negative of battery and positive...

I got some videos...I have no clue where to look now...I replaced the alternator, I replaced the voltage regulator, and I've replaced the battery... You can see what it does when the electric fans come on... Seems to fluctuate an awful much...any idea on what can be happening...

I've never been a fan of trim, but that's just my opinion! Look at a car with and one without and make a judgment! I think no trim makes a car look less "granny" but then again, I hate vinyl tops and some people love em!

I usually NEVER go on FABO during the winter...if I can't drive the Dart then my interest is totally gone :(

You've prob seen this already...but this is how I wired mine...the second page shows the gauge wire if you did the bypass thing... http://www.madelectrical.com/electricaltech/amp-gauges.shtml

I have this for my Wilwood discs http://www.reillymotorsports.com/store/product.php?productid=16200&cat=273&page=1

my eyes hurt from trying to make sense of this, my brain says it looks photoshopped, it doesn't comprehend the reality of it, haha

I haven't really lived through any high point in America, unfortunately I'm stuck with what the past generation has created for my future :( Maybe that's why I love working on older cars...taking apart a new car scares the sh*t out of me...so many plastic snappable tabs!

Trade for my Dart???

Thanks for the info memike (wish it was more PerTronix related) but I still learned something! rrvolare...what are you using for a coil?

It's in Worcester (Greenhill Park & Downtown) it's from July 1st-3rd http://www.summernationals.com/index2.html

Does your setup (kinda) look like this? If so then mine fits...

I second this, almost as easy as a hydraulic

Might as well ask now that it's getting near the date...anyone up here in the Northeast going?

So I've read in the directions that you bypass the ballast...so I'm assuming that you just disconnect the wires from the ballast and splice em together...am I correct on this? Just don't want any wires burning up if I do this... I have the PerTronix distributor with the ignition II as well as...

I second this 100%. That amp meter was a nightmare to my electrical system, was blowing fuses left and right, deleted it/installed volt meter and so far I've had good luck!

You should be alright, I upgraded my stock alternator with a 100 amp...then again, I'm running two 12 inch subwoofers and a few other things that need more power

If I may ask (because I'm installing two 12" subs myself) what did you do for electrical upgrade to handle these? Did you get a new alternator? Do you have a cap or separate battery? Thanks!

bet nothing is done under the hood...lol, so when you buy it and find out it wasn't "restored" the seller could say that it was never in the description, haha

So I got a 3 core radiator and the lower hose doesn't fit...no matter which way I cut the hose, one end isn't right...anyone else run into this problem? Thanks, Craig

this thread makes me want to revisit the wiring in my car...

Haha, yeah it's too late for that, had to put a small dent in it, blood curdled a bit when I had to do that, lol, I have the steering column bolted up as far away as I could before I did it, its a small dent, gave it the clearance it needed. GMachine, I could see it kinda sucking with the...

that kickdown cable was the best money I've ever spent!

Thanks MVRCorp, but I already have the dumpouts, just need the cap itself, I may just make em

Anyone know where I can get a set for 2 1/2" exhaust, Summit only has it for 3"-3 1/2" Thanks! Craig
