I will be heading to Hershey on Saturday. Anyone else showing their car?

I will be entering my Z for judging at the event this Saturday. Look me up if you go - dusk blue 69.

The AIM shows the lower hose crossing over the upper hose for a V8 engine. However, I see a lot of pictures that have a band around both hoses that attaches to the alternator. Which is the correct way to install the hoses?  Thanks.

My friend is restoring a 69 Z28 X33 built in November 69. The car has its original tach and it is a 6000 to 7000 rpm tach. Any thoughts why it did not have the 8k or 8500 tach?  I also have my original tach and it is a 6k to 7k tach too and my car was built August 29, 1969. Just curious.

is it normal for the oil pressure in a 302dz to drop to around 10 on the gauge when the engine is warm and is idling, for example when I sit at a red light?  As soon as I give it gas the pressure goes back up around 45. If this is not normal, any thoughts why this is happening?  Thank you.

I am considering entering this year and trying for junior champ. If I can do so at Gettysburg, I will go for senior champ at Hershey in the Fall.  I have a couple of questions for those in the know.  Will I lose points for not having a certain accessories like a bumper jack or stickers that would have come on the car from the factory, like the GM door reflector?  Any tips? Will I receive a list of items I need to work on?  I plan to drive my car so I would like to get the shows out of the way. Thanks.

Any recommendations on the best way to plug hose to heater to prevent coolant from going to the heater box?  Thanks.

My brake light stays on, any thoughts why it stays on and what I should do to fix it?

Is there a reproduction Y77 battery on the market?  I assume there is not since I searched Chris site and the web and could only find "R" repro batteries. Thanks. FYI. I took my Z out for her maiden voyage yesterday. Wow, great sound and lots of fun!  It feels good bringing a car back from the dead.

Engine was on the Dyno and will go in the car this week.  Had to post, I am very excited!
