Does anyone have a link to a quite clear photo of the firewall (from the engine side) showing the correct routing, and which holes to use, for the Oil, temp, and speedometer cables? I'm at the point where I can change what I have done, but that will get more difficult as I proceed.

Thanks,

PS: I went thru the photos on Jim Carter, and no luck with that.

My '38 coupe has the choke/throttle/water temp/oil pressure lines through the oblong grommet in the center of the firewall just above the valve cover, in that order from passenger side to driver's side. The speedometer cable routes through the large hole to the driver's side of the mast jacket.

Rick and Tiny,

The line up for the center grommet sounds better than the way I have them. Also, I was able to find a photo of the interior, and the choke and throttle are in that order on the dash, so it makes sense. I will re-align mine, and get them where they belong.

Thanks,

Gary
