About $13 each, and I got 14 so I have a couple spares. :shock:

I thought I had a picture of them on my phone, but I do not.

Lou, I'd guess they are 1-7/8" to 1-3/4". :lol:

IF all goes as planned, I am off Thursday. Plans include going to the bank in Onarga and paying off the mortgage on the Skunkworks, Going to Paxton and trailering my parts PT Cruiser back to Milford, and trailering the Valiant home so I can start on the bowl of spaghetti. I am replacing a bunch of switches that do not seem to be connected to anything with a new Moroso switch panel and a nice blade type fuse block. Once done with all that I may not be afraid to turn the main on anymore. :shock: :mrgreen:

I always thought Mike knew exactly where each wire went and what it was for, he just made it look like a mess to keep Team Green scratching their heads.

Mike was an expert at making horsepower. By his own admission he was not an electrician. At one time he may have known where every wire went, but that was long ago. :cry:

He said the other night he had fallen victim to having to have the latest trick of the week part, and things kind of got out of hand. Been there, done that. :oops:

Got the most important part for the car so far. As most know, Mike always raced the car in a blue/yellow striped polo shirt. I got mine. :lol:
