Re: project 86

I got some new toys in the mail thanks to MCB MATT. I received a Digital Dakota dash, and an OBD II module. More goodies coming soon. I may upload my unboxing video but I don't really like hearing my voice

Re: project 86

Almost finished making my rats nest into a custom harness. I bought HP tuners to well tune. Next wire loom, non adhesive tape, fuse panel. Then I can't rebuild the engine
