I finally finished everything up. I had a seeping water pump and bought Mishimoto black hoses when I got the long tubes, so I've been slowly chipping away at getting it all done. I relocated the factory coolant temp sender to the thermostat housing and put the AutoMeter sender in the intake manifold.

Other parts of the mini project included a black center console armrest pad, new shifter bezel trim, new pedal pads w/ a manual gas pedal, & ashtray door repair kit to keep the N2O switches out of sight.

Looks REALLY nice! I especially like the steering wheel.

I believe this car is easily my favorite fox body I've seen. Everything on it is as good as OEM or better. Very nice work, as always.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the nice comments. Hope to get some weekend cruises in this spring/summer and at least a few First Fridays or car shows.

I REALLY need to get some 1/4 mile times w/ the nitrous...

Do you have the ratcheting crimper for the barrel connectors? I was looking at some (I want to buy some that are made in the USA, trying to support our economy) but those jokers were over $100!!!! I found some others that were around $45-50 which is a little more reasonable....Just was wondering which ones you were using.

These are the ones I have. Not ratcheting and honestly not sure if USA made or not.

They work excellent for all the crimping I did with weatherpacks. I ended up buying several more connectors from somebody on ebay for this little project. You might even be able to get them locally, not sure I never checked. But the shape of the crimp area is critical to get the terminal connected right.
