Just got back from a drive with the 69 and all kinds of problems. First when I started to open the drivers side door from inside the little lever you pull on wouldn't work. Got to locking and it has two hinges on each side and a pressed in pin that holds it. I don't know how the pin could have came out as there is barely enough clearance for me to see between the end and the side of the unit that holds it, but it was not only out but gone. Took the whole unit off and hunted through my nuts and bolts until I found a screw that would go in that side as fortunately it is the side that has the holes all the way through. The other side the pin is pressed in and there is no opening on the back side or anything to go through. If this screw will hold good and if not I will take the thing off and see if I can get a small bold and then I will have to grind the nut down on one side as the darn hole is almost right on the bottom. Then I decided to open it up in 3rd and blow out the cobwebs and the darn rev limiter was still stopping me at 5500. I set it at that when the motor was first done so I wouldn't be running it to fast but had since set it up to 6200. According to the papers all you have to do to change it is take a jewelers screw driver and turn the 1000s switch to whatever you want it and the 100s switch the same. Anyway I was limited to 5500 with it set on 6200, so when I got home I got the unit out where I could see it easy and set the dam thing to 7,000. I know it wasn't under load, but I started the car and since it was already hot I revved it up and it went right past the 6300 mark and I quit real quick. Just ran it up there for a couple of seconds. Hope it is just the little setting screws are marked a little wrong and it will rev up next time out.
