Seatbelt/starter interlock.  I would bypass it by jumping the WR (from ignition switch) to the YK (to start relay).

Gentlemen,
Thanks for the responses, I will put that plug on my list of items to delete.
For the ignition switch, I am going to 3D print a two piece clamp to keep the switch in place.

I was overthinking this ignition switch thing, as ususal.
Two 10-24 grub screws, 90 deg. apart, and the switch is secure, 5 min job.

Guys, getting ready to do some testing on my wiring, sanity check, when looking at the ammeter front face is the brown batter y cable on the left rear terminal of the gauge?
Many thanks

[jbcollier]

Dunno.  Attach battery to one side and hook up a load to the other.  Negative reading is what you want.

   Battery, + BROWN  to the right side of gauge . Left side Brown /WHT to alternator, on the S2.
   TC right is Battery +  , Left side BRN/WHT
 
   Viewed from the rear.

Thanks Gents, I will proceed, and hope the fire gods don't visit me.

  How many wires do you have off?  just connect the brn and the brn/wht .  which way does the needle move?

Wiring is done, between the 75 harness in a 72 car , and previous undocumented mods it was a pain.
Have to finish up some work on the dashpad, and then put it back together. Carbs going in after that.

Looking good!

Could someone recommend a cooling system overflow tank cap? My present one will not hold pressure, and is marked as 7 psi.
thanks much

[BDA]

I have a 7 lb. Stant with a lever to relieve the pressure when taking it off. I got it before I built my car so it's probably going on 25 years old and seems to work fine. I think any newer cap would be fine. Make sure there's nothing keeping it from sealing first.

[Bainford]

There is a recommendation in the Dave Bean catalogue to use the lowest pressure cap you can find. The reasoning is to reduce the pressure working against the water pump seal, and thereby extend its life.

[wilkrod]

Thanks guys, have a 7 psi cap coming today from Summit racing.

Hi all,
Has anyone installed the Sytec STLK100 cable throttle kit on twin Webers?
I am confused on how the cables are connected.
Do the cable sheaths reside in the engine compartment with bare cable running to the cable block that is installed on the gas pedal?
Thanks for any info.
Regards
