I picked up a 12" electric at PepBoys. I had to trim the frame a little
to get it to fit under the cowl in front of the radiator. I like it as I
can now hear what the engine is doing instead of just hearing the fan. It
runs a little hot in the summer but I can keep the heater on and it seems
ok. (can you hear the sweat dripping off my feet?) I also punched a hole
in the radiator putting the temp sensor in and had to have that fixed.
Missed driving it to a car show (MG's at the Rocks '97).
