    Could be, does that only disable the fuel pump?

      Yup, idea is to keep fuel from spewing all over in the event of a rollover. From your pic looks like it was bypassed/hard wired.

        I think that's the screw hole mount for the switch just above the connector in the pic.

            I Think it's missing, this is a bigger view of the area and there's not anything to connect it to in the spare wheel well.

              that looks like it should be plugged into an inertia switch.

                Yup, that's it, mine is missing and you can see the holes from the mounting screws where it's missing. Ok, good to know.

                    I deleted mine from the harness if he wants a free one. But yes, they are check enough. I would be curious to see why they deleted it to begin with.

                      I bet it went bad. We had one die in the probe race car on the track.

                        I used to use mine as an anti-theft device when I parked my coupe at hotels in shreveport. Pop the trunk to get my bag out and used the key to pop the button up. Let them try to start it now.

                          My first mustang was a 68 fastback, I used to pop the hood and take the rotor out from the distributor so that it wouldn't run. 0.0% chance the car would run on it's own power.

                            My stepdad did that to me too. I kept a spare 7.97 rotor in the glove box.

                            • So I have a few parts that should be arriving tomorrow for the car, I should be able to do the head swap in the next few weeks with the parts coming in.

                              Parts arriving:
                              1. GT40 upper and port matched lower intake. I'll remove and sell my explorer GT40P intake setup (with EGR) during the head swap. I really just wanted the tubular upper and since the lower is port matched that's a plus I suppose.
                              2. Ford Racing head gaskets
                              3. FelPro gaskets (timing cover set, valve cover, intake upper/lower)
                              4. New header gaskets
                              5. ARP head bolts and cam bolt
                              6. Sealed power timing chain
                              7. Ford Racing harmonic balancer

                              I already have on the bench a set of TrickFlow 170 heads, TFS1 cam, Scorpion 1.7 stud mount rockers, TFS valve covers. The heads already had an O Ring cut into them for the Loc Wire gaskets, but I'm gonna be NA and pretty mild so I'm planning to get them milled and remove that ring (pic below). I called Wayne Calvert up in Denton and he said it's like $68/pair to mill them (likely more based on needing to remove enough material to get rid of the ring) so I wanted to know if anyone has used him before and has a review on his shop?

                              • I've had Calvert balance several flywheel/clutches and build a 2.3 short block and I've never had an issue with anything.
