    FS NOS Door Brake (pair).

    These are the original style door brakes, new, never installed. I've had them for 20+ years. Also have one of the hinge pins. I cannot remember who sold them to me, probably Carl. I'm in San Jose, CA. Local pickup preferred. $150 for the pair.

    Stahl headers question

    Hi Mike. The later style e24 and e28 exhaust manifold gaskets provide shrouding for the wires. That is what I used for my Stahl install.

    Dash Wood Pattern

    The longer pieces took a little longer to digitize than I estimated, These are the long, right hand side templates in *png format. The vertical marks are at 30" for scaling. I'll do the dash sill piece tomorrow.

    Dash Wood Pattern

    Attached are the front and back Left Hand Side templates, scanned in pdf format. The holes on each part line up squarely when the curvature is right, given the thickness of the plywood. The shorter piece is front. More to come.

    Dash Wood Pattern

    Yup. Those are the same guys. http://racetecpistons.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/RaceTec_Catalog.pdf. I think you'll really like them. I don't track my CS, so the AutoTec were sufficient.

    Dash Wood Pattern

    Will scan and send to you tomorrow. As far as the bottom piece, take a look at http://www.vranedom.com/wood/wood.html. We can probably extract the correct dimensions from one of these photos (I have Bobcad and can digitize photos). Just tell me what you need.

    Dash Wood Pattern

    Patterns found. For the curved pieces, I made front and back templates to account for the curvature. The difference between them guides the curvature. The templates are sheet metal, I can make paper patterns for anyone who wants them. Hi Luis! How's the Lambo?

    Dash Wood Pattern

    I have those patterns in my attic. I'll look for them tomorrow. I've got plenty of time on my hands. Foodsaver vacuum sealer is perfect for this job.

    Idle settings with AC on - Megasquirt help

    I set this up on my MS/2 v3.0 board, running MSExtra. Don convinced me to upgrade to MSExtra firmware and the A/C Idle-up was one of the features that were included. It took a couple of tries to get the circuit right. I tapped off of the AC compressor switch, dropped the signal down to approx...

    headliner removal

    The rod pulls right out of the nylon bushing. However, the bushings are tight and the rod ends have a bend in them that makes it a little counter intuitive on which way to pull. You can see the bend in this photo. The nylon bushings are easily damaged and were not available when I did my car.

    Identity this AC compressor?

    I used that compressor on my install. I got everything off of an e24, as noted. Pics: http://www.vranedom.com/ac/ac.html.

    Hardest question ever

    I'll keep it clean. What does it smell like? My e9 heater doesn't smell, but the heater core in my Toyota is seeping and smells like maple syrup as the heat evaporates the coolant.

    What is the opposite of garage queen?

    Just my opinion here, but the opposite of queen, in this context, is not king. In the present consideration, the opposite of queen is a slattern, or gutter snipe; a capable, but worn and dirty vehicle you will use for just about anything despite its marque or provenance. Most of my cars have...

    Congrats Tom. Your coupe looks great. What a HS car show. California kids don't know how good they have it!

    Do you have custom interior wood?

    I used quilted maple. I still love the figure, but the Nardi wheel looks wrong. Also, the old CSI cloth interior must go.

    checking fuel pressure - mechanical pump - a question

    DQ, thank you for those data points! I am sure that my BAV is leaking down much faster than that. Installation of the check valve should certainly help.
