re. Headliner bowing down with sunroof open. My '82 has always done that (since I got it in '85). I just ignore it.

I'm starting to think it's temp related. Normal cruising on a coolish night, thing's are normal, it's just city driving in sick hot NC weather that seems to make it need a few hundred more rpm to peg the gauge. Wish I had an oil temp gauge in this one..
