Nice! Bet ya did that off the top or yer head?     ;)

Thanks.

Ya, viewed this gals '79 and it has the series resistor pack and what
is presumably the 11 pin fuel pump relay as I have in hand.  .... as
well as an exposed mystery wire, "capped off" aux. air valve .....  on
a $6000 rebuilt engine? Anyhow......

Ironically, she was not in need of these parts. But thanks for the help all!

Neil.
