    Power steering and a 4 speed is going to be fun, had to go with a flaming river ujoint to get that to work, and the zbar still hits the header. Is this an early A ?

    Mystery smoke from gauge cluster

    The dash regulator is in the temp gage, or the fuel gage I dont remember. but if it is working you can see it pulsing with a mechanical volt meter. if the fuel gage is responding then there probably not an issue with the regulator as it would have taken out the gage or the sending unit in the...
