But, they're all autos. Will this be a problem, or can I still swap it over with no problems?

You can put an auto tach in a manual car :thumb:

Found one online but it's like $20. :x
Oh well. It's worth it to me :D
The things we do for our cars :roll:

Should be sunny all this next week, though. So all we need now are for those piston rings to come in and we should be good to go! In the meantime, we're gonna extract that power steering rack. Should be fun. :lol:

The power steering rack proving to be a bitch to get out.
That pin is so difficult to get out. We have the right size punching tool, it's just not coming out.

We may just drop the A-Frame to get us some more wiggle room.
