I have some BBK LT headers that I just installed. I am trying to sort out the secondary stuff.

I have the line running back to the mid pipe hooked up. Then there is the thing that runs up from the headers to the EGR (I think). It's that header thing that I am trying to figure out.

I have a picture of my engine bay during the tear down. There are two lines that run pretty much parallel to the headers on the passenger side. From my picture it looks like the header line runs up to the EGR just inside of those two lines (between the lines and the head). But when I try to test fit it in there it seems a bit too tight, and gets forced over onto the lifters and the head. So it does not look like it will line up.

Does anyone know how this is supposed to run? Pictures would really help too.

If not, I will probably just end up mocking it up as I reassemble the intake/SN-95 elbow/TB. But it sure would be a lot easier to get it in right now while I have plenty of access.

Thanks.

Are you talking vacuum lines? If you are both of them attach to the smog tube valves that run to the air thermactor and the h-pipe. There is the vacuum tree on the back side of the elbow which has the following connections: firewall vacuum tree (the big hose that attached to the back) and the fuel pressure regulator and EGR valve which both connect to the top of the tree.
