I've got to run the whole tank of gas through first so I am driving it as much as I can. I have heard it is hard to get these 82's through California smog check standards; I have no idea why. A new catalytic converter can make up for a lot, though, and if she needs it she'll get one. I think a tune up is probably in order too.

Mac88chp, that sounds like fun. I was thinking of going to the Dream Machine show, but next weekend the wife and I will go to Reno, NV for a few days of R&R. Maybe I'll see you at the Ripon EV show if you attend.

I finished making the CC1 to MPA2 cable today; as soon as the parts to rebuild the CC1 plastic J1 connector come in I'll be ready to test everything again.

As I have been driving 0327 around, configured as in the last pics, hardly anyone seems to notice. Only at the gas station the other night did a kid (~20-22) ask about it; he was a Mustang fan and recognized what it was.
