    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.

    Modern rotors are too thin to turn. Waste of money - they will warp quickly. In the ‘90s I was a product engineer at GM. They advised against turning then. John

    VIN plate locations can be different based on the state that issued the VIN. Indiana wanted it close to the current location on new cars and agreed to the firewall above the LH foot box. John

    Side Oiler is only beneficial at extended use at high RPM. They were built for NASCAR. All the COs would be equal, except horse power should be higher for the larger cubic inch engines. John

    Most Superformance cars are small blocks, so that should be the baseline for resale. Most ERAs are FEs. If built with a small block, resale would suffer. John

    I run a McLeod Street Twin behind my 496 FE. Brent suggested it and it is a great clutch. About 2500 miles with no complaints. Time will tell if it will hold up for many years and miles. John

    The Holley in tank pumps that mount similar to OE come in a wide range of volumes and pressures. They are very quiet. Holley 12-129 is a good for carbs/no return/600+ HP John
