Just picked up my Vintage Air system yesterday!! I'll be rereading your previous posts, but any more words of advice will be much appreciated. I'll have the engine and tranny pulled, so it might make some things a little easier...? Cant wait to have MY car drivable again!!

i hate taking the dash apart. i wont do that till i get the car to the new hosue down the street so that i can start taking things apart again. im not sure if i mentioned it or not but the big plate for the firewall that comes with the kit that the hard lines pass through didnt line up perfectly on my car so if i was you i would line the plate up and use it to locate the spots to drill the holes for the bolt and plastic fasteners that come with the kit. i used the timplate that they gave me and tripple checked everything according to the instructions and it was off a little 
just take your time and READ the instructions twice before starting. trust me when i say you want to read them twice because it will save you a lot of time and headaches.

one of my good friends said that he would help me do that but i live in military housing and i like living here and dont want to take any chances getting kicked out. its hard finding nice places around here with garages at a decent price. the place that i am moving to also is next door to my supervisor who always gives me a hard time and tells me that i dont know what i am doing and cant get the car running to save my life.

they dont want us having non running cars in our garages and they say taht we are not allowed to do any major repairs on them either 
just a bunch of stupid rules and they cant even fix the problems that some of these places are having. i love living here but some of the rules are rediculous. i really dont think that they mind the old project cars since there are a few of them here in the neighborhood that i have seen in some of the garages but never seen anyone get upset about them.
