    No need to swap harness You will have to run the neutral safety wires (heavy gauge black)to the switch an the pedal (or just slice them together like I did) and swap the back up light connector (two green). All else is the same.

      I'm going to anyways, all the wiring in the car has been hacked into, getting rid of it and starting fresh with factory manual harnesses. I'm going to be super picky on this one and not skimp on any details on it, no rush on it getting done..

              No updates really, pulled the fenders off and rear bumper, rest of interior besides dash and headliner, and pulled the interior wiring harness out.

                      Been piddling on the engine some

                      Cleaned up some more, going to clean it a lot more..

                      The VC will get painted too.



                      New timing belt/tensioner, water pump, oil filter to go on.


                      New AC comp





                      This weekend I should be doing the water pump, headgasket, timing belt, and resealing the oil pan and also replacing it with a better one.. this ones dented a little and the drain bolt is rounded off a bit..

                      Here's the garage supervisor slacking on the job! :lol:
