Well this is going to be a slow build, but thought I would start a thread. The Bronco has gone under the knife. I've started removing all the SAS stuff. Here's a couple of pics.

That's odd. The first thing I thought of is heat soak. Sometimes when running headers it'll heat up the starter

Last question. You still running the side starter relay? Sometimes new starters will require you to remove the firewall relay. If you still have the paperwork double check and make sure that it doesn't say to get rid of it

I think you have your post confused. I haven't asked anything about headers.

Headers will heat up a starter to the point it won't want to kick over the motor. Not confused.

Well, not much has happened to the Bronco. I'm waiting on parts I ordered to show up. I did however score a 9" out of a 78 Bronco already trussed with a Detroit locker for $300.00. I'm hoping more parts show up this week.

Well no fiberglass this week. Apparently they shipped my order to s someone else. I ordered it on the 2nd of December and was told 2-3 weeks. When I called on the Monday before xmas they said it was going out that week. New years eve was told out was getting put on the truck that day. Called today and they said it was getting shipped today and I'll have it Monday. I'm so frustrated with them right now.

I didn't order a hood. I saw that right after I got off the phone with them.
