One trick to a nice looking bread for older guys whose hands aren't as steady as the used to be, is to to over the head a second time with just the tig torch and no filler. Using just the torch allows you to hold the torch with two hands for a stead movement. A straight, weave, or pulsed bead can be run. The second pass with the tig can also clean up a mig bead.

Practice, practice, practice. 
And remember, one method to a good looking weld is a grinder!

BobE…on the ME Wagner website, FAQ or instructions mention the PCV should be recalibrated if carburetor settings change. EFI install would qualify as a carb change to me.

Yes, but I was still surprised at how much adjustment it needed.  I should have mentioned that I was able to get the idle speed down from like 950 with the Holley to 750RPM with the EFI by adjusting the EFI parmeters, timimg, Wagner. etc. 
My current 'Winter' project is to incorporate timing control into the EFI system.

I have kick panel speakers in my 65 and it doesn't interfere with the high beam switch.
Also, this just came to me; there should be two screw holes in your floorpan where the switch is mounted.

I've  been so busy working on my son's 1985 F350 that I haven't even been going to car shows in the mustang.  I was able to practice a little Tig welding yesterday , my second time.  I've learn to not weld in front of the welder because of the fans, comfort and positioning are important and contamination sucks.  I also had to put on a pair of reader glasses because bifocal glasses are to hard to see the weld.  But I'm getting a little better for my second time practicing.

I'm in if it's enough of a discount to buy and sit on it until I need it.
