Tightening those bolts is not that bad. I'm sure it's well within the scope of your abilities. :roflmao:

 

Surprised to see what appears to be a steel exhaust not of the stainless variety. You getting cheap at the end of the build?  Lol

Mostly running out of time :laugh:. Aluminized works well if you keep it clean. I was going to tig up a 304 system but just don't have the time. this should last me several years and is honestly going to be a nice layout to model after when I eventually tig up a stainless setup :L:

I've been down into the column that far before, but it's been some time back. Probably a couple of hours to carefully disassemble and get it repaired correctly. Going to use red Loctite and torque to spec. I also replaced the turn and wiper switches and installed a NOS cruise control turn signal/wiper lever. I removed the OE style cruise control connector and replaced it with a 4 pin Deatsch connector to connect to the LS PCM.

Is this intended to be a moisture barrier?

Partly. Also a good thermal barrier and dampener. The inside of the doors and around the speaker have been completely dynamated. The dynaliner is a 1/8” closed cell barrier just used behind the door panel. The door panels themselves are 3/16” birch with a foam layer followed by the vinyl. They are quiet as a Mercedes :laugh:

I'll be keeping this in mind. Nice work
