80 & 62 Build NEW VIDEO added

[Cirbo]

What kind of exhaust manifolds are those?

 

[NCFJ]

The manifolds are 02 C5 corvette stock manifolds. They do fine in a 60 series, too tight a fit in the 80. A side benefit is the O2 sensors mount in the manifolds, bung already there.

 

[NCFJ]

Full Auto Meter gauges including fuel gauge with fuel sending unit. Customer chose red back lighting. These gauges are accurate and well calibrated as opposed to going to the trouble to get the OEM C----H temp gauge to work. Same applies to OEM oil pressure. The speedo can be wired to the harness or to a GPS unit.

Thanks Onur

That means there would be plenty of room for them in a 55, right?...

That is a cool feature of the speedo to go to GPS, nice find...

I'd have to measure the 55. I am not a technology for the sake of technology kind of guy but the GPS thing is pretty cool. May have to check it out

Thinking the Camaro pan would work with the Crown Vic front end.

Lokar shifter and boot arrived, boot with LED shift indicator on right. Package on the left is all that is required to make LED work

First photo is DBW gas pedal from donor cut in two places.In the second photo parts on left have to be configured to match OEM on right

WARNING!!! if wiring scares you don't look at the photos.


Lots of wiring with a Vortec swap. All terminal ends are crimped and soldered. Double heat shrink protects wire from bending too tight and splitting

Stand offs allow VIN plate to be read

 

[custyota]

very nice and neat!

Stock gauges

stock gauges removed and 5/16 cut from the rear of the two larger rings

 

[NCFJ]

Custom gauge mounts were required for the speedo and quad gauge, OEM tach housing was modified for new tach

 

[elkaholic]

That looks really sharp Stan ....






Correction, it looks perfect

I love Griffin Radiator, they tell you 2-3 weeks and it shows up in 8 days. This is a direct fit FJ62 radiator I had made into an LS version. Swapped top tube and filler neck and added a steam port

 

[NCFJ]

Thank you Sam, you are too kind

 

[NCFJ]

So I went to Fan Shrouds R Us, but no luck. No shrouds for an 88 LC with Vortec and manual fan
So I made one.

 

[NCFJ]

Shroud and fan installed. Manual fan pulls plenty of air, no need to go with electric. KISS

Looks really nice, well done...

 

[mtweller]

Nice stuff, as usual! Looks like there's built in room for an intercooler
