Reply to "Oops I'm doing it again....I lost my head..."

Monday...

In the close but no cigar dept, a couple of things....

I think my exhaust hanger strap is too long...
 

This is the 2" wide by 1" thick material I got from McMaster-Car. Will need to do some bandsaw work on it! Where's my bandsaw.....

These hanger reinforcements were "supposed" to be the correct part over the phone.....duh!

 

Turns out that it appears that the Panteras used the same reinforcement and also tubular spacer....but no one has piped up and said that the spacers were used on the Goose yet....Daryl?

8-31-10 update: Was looking through the Goose parts book, and found the hangers and reinforcements listed on page 52, two lengths of hangers specified from Fiat 1300/1800 models, and 16 of the little reinforcements and 8 steel sleeves as being sourced from the 1300 model Fiat!

Just waiting for headers!

I'm a little concerned about the radiator cap on the coolant tank...seems a little tall....but it doesn't appear to have been replaced either.....I do not want it to contact the shield and hose it all up!

Posting some jack pic's over in the "tool kit" thread.

Cheers!
Steve
