engine mount photos
managed to find some pictures so here they are. The engine mount is now painted and the engine bay has had some conduit put through it to tidy up the
wiring. That header tank that i made up holds about 6 ltrs buy itself!! so dropping the coolant is a big job.

If it is idling high then check for any air leaks.
Also is it idling high after it has been running for a while ? They will idle up when cold.
Also check the ICV to make sure it is clean and functioning properly

Got new temp sensor cause the other one the readings (ohms) were right out, but still cant get the thermo fan to kick in and also get fault codes for
the the IACV and purge solenoid?? its runs and drives and feels alright but I'm not sure about the codes. A new IACV is $860 :0
If anyone can help that would be good, i might go and take some photos of the exhaust that i did up yesterday

Could you post some pics of your radiator installation, hose routing, etc. Yours looks pretty much like I want to do on my '71.
