Well, kinda all over the place tonight for about 3.5 hours.
Started off the night and installed the 700R4 lock up kit I got from Painless. I was kinda nervous about doing this myself since it involved removing solenoids, presure swithes and wiring, but it was totally painless
Figured I was playing around the Tranny, installed the Lokar tranny dipstick, easy. Also, cut the kickdown cable per instructions and got that installed. Put the pan back on, don't think I need to go in there again.
Installed that switch as mentioned before. I drilled a 1/2" hole and used a 1/2 bolt threaded into the nut and through the hole to make sure it was aligned while I welded it, didn't want to melt the plastic switch. Let that cool down, threaded jam nut on the switch and thread it into the new mount. Seems to work perfect, plenty of room for adjustment and engages the switch perfect.
Pulled the brake master cylinder out of the 79, just to make sure that fit. I think I'm going to have to remove all the brake lines on the firewall on the 79 and make sure there are holes and threaded boss's to fasten the lines to the firewall. When I was removing the master cylinder there were more attachment points on the firewall for those lines than I thought.
I moved the Rostra cruise control unit to where the factory Toyota iginition coil would be mounted on the fender. Reason: Instructions said not to me any closer than 10" to the iginition coil. My coil is in the distributor and where it was before was about 8". Not sure how critical that measurement is?? I mounted the presure switch for the lock up on the firewall, still can be changed, any opinions on this?????
Installed the linkage on the Lokar shift unit to the tranny, also installed the indicator module on the pan to the tranny shifter.
Few other misc. things, probalby go pull brake lines off the 79 tomorrow night and start working on those.
