I too am sorry to hear about Max. :(
On a different note, your progress is looking really good. I'm impressed to see that you're taking the time to refurb the blower motor housing. You rig will be first class when you're finished. :)
Thank you all for the condolences. I miss Max already. It sucks they don’t live as long as we do.
It’s the OCD. There’s no point in doing it, if it’s not done right, plus I suspect, based on the rust on the bottom box bracket, that the core needs to be repaired. The old foam on the box was totally shot, and I want a system that is sealed as much as possible.
I took the original Mopar cruise control unit off the shelf and cleaned it up. Upon disassembly, I saw that the rubber diaphragm is still in very good condition and very pliable. All I had to do was replace the foam filter, so I used the pink foam I bought for the heater box. The only thing I don’t know is whether it’ll work with my Thermo-Quad. The ‘83 I got the carb and brackets from had the cruise unit up front, mounted on top of the radiator. I’ll figure it out, once the engine is in.
