[QUOTE="hokie_yj, post: 600252, member: 4238"] Worked on it a bit last night and today. I got the transmission temp. gauge working. I just got another tee and welded a 1/4" stud to it and ran a ground wire to the chassis. Also decided to move the cooler for the steering. It only has a copper finned tube cooler and it was originally mounted over the engine about a foot above the exhaust manifold. Obviously it wasn't cooling very good there. I moved it over above the drivers tire. Just had to get a couple new hoses made. It's still under the hood, but should be away from most of the heat now.
