late model hemi into early b bodies

The rear bowl is the smaller of the 2, so that for the drums in the rear and the front bowl is alot bigger so thats for the front discs. Does that sound right?

Should be a yellow wire off the harness for the tach.

I would think you need more fluid for the rear wheel cyl, and less for the discs. Check wilwoods website, that is where I found that I had mine backwards.

Maybe they made a change in the harness, the yellow is for ignition start.

Headliner is finished, now the interiot chrome has to be redone cause it's so pitted and rusty I could not get it clean enough to be good for a saturday night show.

Spoke with Chris at Hotwire, he said that the 03's had a tach signal that ran from the engine ecm to the trans tcm, but that went away in 04 when they went to a single computer.

Then that would make sense. Dakota Digital here you come!!

As to the M/C bowls:
Rear bowl is front brakes--
Front bowl is rear brakes!!!

The wilwood tech said the front to the front and rear to the rear.

headliner installed, hope all the wrinkles will come out with some heat and the trim installed. also the outside trim piece that has to go on first because it has a stud that gets tightened fron the inside.

Nice job on the headliner! and cool video! Brings it to life...

You know fish, if you would drive the forty minutes, you could see in person,lol!!!! Painted both bumpers today, they turned out nice. Miaybe I can get the better half to help pump the brakes tomorrow, but I aint holdin' my breath.

Heres some pics of the little elephant, paitently waiting to get stuffed in and make some noise. Oh, can you say air gap????

Thats where the coils need to go!! Awesome build by the way..

Thanks for the compliment HOTMOPR.

Got the bumpers painted this weekend, got the rear installed. I wet sanded thru the clear and paint on the front, so I gotta redo that one. The drivers side windows are cleaned, couldn't believe how well they look after some elbow grease, and yeah, my arm was tired when I got done.

The interior trim is painted black, but for now it'll have to do untill I can afford to get them rechromed. Window channel felt will go in this weekend, JoeMopar sent me his leftovers, so I'll put it to good use. Hopefully my seats are done and can pick them up on Friday, cant wait to see how they look.

Got my seats yesterday, they look good. Figured out how to install the roofrail trim thanks to a few members on fbbo. Brakes are working perfect, turns out the adjustment on the booster side need to come out alittle. The factory headlight switch is now being used so all the knobs and besels match. Got alot stuff done today, hopefully get more done tomorrow.

The rear glass is in along with the inside and outside trim. The front winshield cracked as we were installing it. I guess it's not a big deal as it did have a bb hole in it, but I was gonna have that fixed, all that is moot now. So I'm on the hunt for a used one, but if I cant find one, I'll have to get a new one and have the glass place install it. Anyone got one that they dont need?
