- Drilled a hole in the firewall for the heater box control cable to go through,
- Added a firewall gasket and cover for heater box cable to come through (photo #1).
- Attached two Adel clamps: one to the down-tube of the engine mount, and a smaller one to that, to accept the heater control cable. A mini pair of vice-grips helped hold both Adel clamps together long enough to get the nut started.
- In photo #3 you can see the small clamp is in line with the heater box flapper valve fitting (the fitting and its nut/bolt are held together temporarily with the blue tape). This will allow the cable to have a nice straight shot to the heater box.
It's time to hang the engine this weekend!!
