Good idea. Ohio's bolts are automotive....guessing they're grade 8. Combined grd 8 w/ SS (stainless steroids) pushes them up between 8.8-9.8. Those are some tuff bolts.....hard.

Dang, we are back to winter again, going down to 20 tonight, high 28 tomorrow, then 15 overnight. Hope that's the last of it.....suppose to start warming up again Wednesday, with a bunch a rain again lol. Quite a bit of standing water hereabouts.

The "auto lamp module" is part of the system that turns the headlights on in the dark and off in sunlight. It works in conjunction with the headlight switch (if it has an "auto" position, that is).

Project almost complete. Just need more gooder bolts now. I took those POS bolts back out and put the stockers in. At least I know I can get those back out. Don't mind the dust.... it needs a good cleaning. Also found that it is leaking PS fluid from the pump. Damn it....

I don't see any dust, looks good! Except for the rusty body ground connect and contaminated brake fluid.

The new valve cover gaskets in SS were somehow, hard to remove? Gab some more on these, please.

That ground will be replaced before long, lol. No brake fluid on it though.

On the stainless... I was meaning the bolts I used that were a 5/32 allen head. They were really soft. I actually ended up doing a double gasket for a little added clearance. The FelPro rubber gaskets worked awesome.

I was referring to in it lol. Perhaps it's just a discolored master.

Might be a little critical....everything else is so clean.
