Looks like the cap they shipped the radiator with, no? Someone got happy and pushed the lower hose over the top and walked away... haha

But I called it! A few posts ago I said "rag in the coolant passage" and I think that counts as close enough. :fight:

What a relief! She's gonna be a beast man

Since this convo, I had the whole interior together as of last weekend, and surprise i ordered the high hump from lmc because of floor TC and it’s the wrong size. Has a few wrinkles. I’m now ripping everything back out to put in a low hump carpet.

For the CB, here’s how I did my uniden and new dome light / headliner. I’m going to swap it with a new cobra 29 I have and drop the bracket a bit more.

Hey, @BlindAmbition needs someone to hack the ECU on his 86, I recommended you on the "professional hacker" thread. I did mention that you're a "brick nose" guy and may not be familiar with the 86 hood latch, but I knew you were a "professional hacker" and could figure it out. I'm pretty sure @snicklas removed the thread so as not to have too much hacking competition.

I think the ECU is commonly referred to as a "voltage regulator" or possibly a "GP controller" I don't know that there's anything else that would have a green chip in it.

If you have, Im not the person to ask about the wiring. There is not a good chance I made a wiring diagram, and yes I use all the same color wire for anti theft reasons. So good luck wiring gremlins if there is any.

LOL
