Reply to "2 popup headlight conversion to 4 headlight"

bosswrenchMember

Decades ago, I talked with Gary Hall about his conversion kit. It was a safety mod, not just cosmetic. It seems that when you jump on the throttle in a 2-headlight Goose with vacuum-powered headlights- especially if the engine has been 'worked on a bit', manifold vacuum drops and the headlights tilt back down. People in front of you think you're winking at them. Not the sort of thing you want to have happen driving in our unforgiving mountains. Same sort of thing used to happen to ancient GMs with their vacuum powered wipers- they stopped wiping under acceleration!
