      Fittings are 134 but the freon I have is r12. My dad fills regular 134 freon cans up with the 12 and then he can transfer it to my car. Nobody had 12 fittings to make a fill hose out of too keep at home hence the adapters.

          Perfect plan! I did the same thing as there is NO way we are going to mess with success!

                    Damn that's a nice engine compartment! I would go crazy cleaning mine, but my friggin valve covers keep leaking and making a mess of things. Plus I gotta rip the underhood lining down. The combo of leaking oil and disintegrating hood liner are making a messof the engine.

                    Tomorrow when I am in my other office I will watch your vids with some real speakers.

                          Thanks Jacob.

                          BUT WAIT...there is more!!!

                          Picked these up: http://www.ebay.com/itm/7MM-8MM-CHRO...d0f35f&vxp=mtr

                          Two sets to be exact.

                          Test fit...little snug being that my plug wires are 9mm:









                          And off for paint...painted:




                          Speaking of Hood liners..one of the things that I am looking for. I see them on ebay again: http://www.ebay.com/itm/310338313135...84.m1438.l2649

                          Probably pick that up soon.

                          Be a bit cautious listening to the video. Some of the music is inappropriate as well as my language at some points......though I never really speak.

                          It would be a nice change of pace. My dads new to him Envoy got me in the mood to do stuff because that car is new to us. Something about working on things you havent worked on for years in a row....

                          I mount my camera like this:



                          on a custom made camera mount complete with padding and the material matches my headliner:

                                I just watched your vids. The car sounds as good as it looks. Gonna be a heartbreaker when you get that crate engine in there. What are you running for muffs? Whatever you got seems to do a decent job of keeping the car somewhat quiet.
