    The switches are on an aluminum sheet bent 90 degrees and riveted to the dash brace. I can send you a picture.

    ERA mounted them on 755. When I got 838 they just supplied the switches and I copied the way my last car was doen.

    Shoot me your email.

    Hello Grubby -
    I am contacting you about your recent post in Club Cobra about heated seats in your ERA 838. I have ERA821 also with heated seats. I was wondering how ERA placed and mounted the control switches in your car? ERA installed my heated seats but just left the control switches laying loose under the seats.
    Thanks for reply.
    BD

    An engine build can be tailored to have a lot of torque or a lot of HP. There are always trade offs. Typically high HP would be made at higher RPMs and less driveability. What do the engine...

    I don't think the Oltoff mounts are the right part for an ERA. Not all FE mounts are the same. The ERA limit bolt certainly helps, but I suspect the bigger problem is the Right mount compresses...
