    Re: Craig, I think the 10 inch pounder is used ...

    It'd have to be an electrical engineeer. No electrician I know is anal enough to use a 10 lb-in torque wrench, but an electrical engineer? Absolutely.

        Patrick and Wayne - well it sure great I have it then since I am an electrical engineer. Now I can safely torque the dash lights in my 67 without fear of socket damage! Craig

                Re: How would u fix this heater box?

                I had an article published in "Corvette Restorer" a couple of years back regarding restoring heater boxes. I would strongly recommend using some reinforcement (sheet metal on backside) that spans the crack. A bolthole repaired without reinforcing will break again very easily. If you would like a copy of the article I can e-mail you a copy.
