Nah not really, I like it looking older, not newer, even if that does sacrifice a bit of power etc.Didn't want to try eldelbrock elbow with ls throttle body?
how did the swap over go? any issues? loving the updates, keep em coming
Went well all being said, had to fab up the accelerator cable bracket and swap to a V6 cable which is a little more universal in it's mounting. Fuel rail and injectors went straight in, air cleaner fits with about 1cm to spare with the bonnet closed.
I re-routed a heap of the OEM wiring too that runs over the front of the engine while I was at it to clean things up. I as well had to extend the IAC and TPS loom up to the new throttle body which I did by running the wiring loom through the chassis rail to hide it then it pops out at the back of the engine. The main goal was to keep the wiring to a minimum. It's a shame where I live needs a heater, if I was in QLD I would have deleted all the heater hoses etc to keep it looking clean, I did however shorten them all and relocate the heater tap to underneath the brake booster rather than right in front of the engine like the oem placement.
Won't know too much more until I get the TPS in next week and can actually start it.
