RE: heater bypass

Mine was the same as LCC's for quite a few years with no problems.
I went back to the heater not just for colder days, but also if the car may start to overheat I could try to lower it by cranking up the heater.

maybe Colorado Mustang might poke his head in here....i know he's not using his heater....maybe he did the same as LCC

sure makes your engine look more clean without those hoses

I plugged the intake port and have a rubber cap on the water pump side. I use one firewall hole for wiring (my ignition sits where the heater box used to) and the other is plugged with a cap from Ace Hardware (don't know why I did this...I need all the cool air I can get in the cabin).

And, no, you really don't want to ride in my '71 in colder weather. Heck, my tires have trouble in the summer, I can't imagine how they'd respond to cold weather.[>:]
