Please post pics of your car so that I can get a visual... I did a swap and can't figure these final connections out.

Picture 1

This is a nipple on the back of the intake. What hose connects here? Also please take a picture of the entire line and where it runs to, I think I may be missing a regulator in this line.



Picture 2

This is a picture of a connection that I cannot figure out where it plugs in to.



Picture 3

This is a connection in the front passenger fender well. I cannot figure out what it plugs in to. (The yellow one)

Pic number 1 goes to the firewall where the heater core tubes/hoses go threw,you will need to get a small vaccuum lines to attach both ends back together.You can see it inside the loop of your 3/4 coolant tube in the pic.
Pic number 2 i need a good picture of your engine on top as a whole to show you where it will go so i can see what you already done with some of the vaccuum lines.
Pic number 3 looks like the one on the left connects to the air conditionning compressor down below,and the one on the right looks like the one for the trigger sensor that is located between the air conditionner compressor,and crank pulley down below.
Pic number 4 looks like the fog lamp connector,not sure,been awhile since i been in the inner fender.
Pic number 5 goes to pic number 6
Pic number 6 see above comment for pic 5
Pic number 7,you got the wrong throttle cable,that one clips to a ball end,like the ol' carb style.
Here is a couple of pics i did for someone else for the vaccuum routing,and pvc routing.


In pic number 2,what is that small line that is hooked up to the vaccuum tree on the passenger side.The only thing that should go there is the PVC line from the passenger cam cover.I wnet over lots of Bullitts,and took lots of pics of Bullitt engine bays to help me with my swap,and none had anything in that tree but the PVC line.
I've done the Bullitt intake swap a few years back,so i can help if needed.
This is what she looks like after i finally figured out how i was going to route everything to look stock.

Posted this on quite a few forums and must not have subscribed. Thanks for the info. I will get a pic of the top of the motor tonight so that you can help me out on number 2 from the original post.

I marked in red what you can do.
See #1,they go together.Which is that broken line/plastic tube that goes to the firewall to join with the other plastic tube were the heatercore/ac stuff come out from.
And #2 can be removed,it's an extra "T" split that isn't needed.
And also,why do you have a small piece of coolant/vaccuum line t'd off the heater core coolant line to the vacuum tree?The only thing that goes to the vacuum tree is the PVC line from the passenger cam cover.

I'm not sure what the vacuum tree is, but the there are two nipples on the rear of that intake. One is 5/8 and the other is 3/4. I ran a the 5/8 heater core line the 5/8 intake nipple, and the 3/4 heater core line to the 3/4 nipple in the intake.

Is that wrong. This is my first engine swap, so I'm a little slow.

Also, I noticed this down behind the header on the passenger side. It comes out of the firewall. What is this a connection to?

That's the drain hole for the airconditioning.

#1 in the pic below is the tree i am asking about.You should only have the pcv line from the passenger cam cover going to it like you already have,but that little coolant line (#2 in the pic) t'd off the heater hose shouldn't be there.The two extra tiny arms/ports on that tree can be capped off,and that splitter in between that coolant line get come out.Everything else look fine so far,besides what you already asked about.Is everything coming together alright?
Plus,is this a 2001 Bullitt engine that you dropped in?At first i thought you just did the intake swap until i noticed a lot of the Bullitt specific little things that most would skip out on LOL!

Yeah, It's a Bullitt swap. That hose that you pointed to (#2) is a hose that runs off of a nipple on the back of the intake to the EVAP in the passenger front fender well. It's the tube on the left that the yellow highlighter is pointing to in the picture below. That should be correct... I THINK?

The way the pic is it looks like it is t'd off (circled in pic below) from the heater core hose LOL!


That hose buy the yellow highlighter needs to connect to port #1 in the pic below,port #2 is for your PCV hose from your passenger cam cover,and ports 3 (the two little guys running off that tree)need to be blocked off.

Nice help - impressive props to everyone who helped.

My contribution..if you haven't figured this one out yet - #4 is the turn signal part of your headlight housing.
