    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

    Current ERAs use 4th generation Camaro rear brakes on the ERA rear. They were also used on Corvettes. I am quite sure Wilwood has something that is a bolt on. I am not sure on 575. That would have...

    You will need to put a spacer in place of the inboard rotors. ERA has them. John

    Thanks for the comments. I don’t think it is the windshield - I have held it during the noise to no effect. Exhaust is possible - I will check that. I will find it. It may take time; I am...

    I did remove the windshield. The screws into the bottom frame had pulled partially out so I had to get access to repair the threads. John

    I use a QuickTime plate and bell on my 427 with no issues. My last Cobra had a 428 and used a Lakewood plate and bell with no issues. It had a Ford OE type starter. John
