Coming in clutch
Last night me and my dad installed the clutch rod. The clutch rod is the piece that goes from the clutch pedal to the transmission. The next step would be the brake pedal. I still haven't come up with a way to install a tachometer. I don't think it'd be that hard, but it might cost a little bit of money. Also, the header piece came in from Oregon last week. A header is a modification to the exhaust, that makes it cleaner flow, which will produce a more powerful engine in the end. On the picture you can see where the header fits on the side of the engine, on the gasket.

Update!
The body is finished! We've still got a lot to do but this is a huge step. I've done some research on a sound system and I came into a problem. The jeep does not have a tachometer, which is a meter that measures the RPM of the engine. Also, the jeep has a manual transmission, so the way you switch gears is that you listen to the engine. But how are you supposed to hear it the engine if your jamming? My solution is to install a tachometer onto the engine. It's a small problem with an easy fix.
