Put the track heat lower on the car this afternoon, went to put the pcv valve in, and the hole for the pvc on the trick flow is quite a bit bigger. any ideas?

Mad.. went out and looked at the old intake and the grommet was so covered with silicone you could hardly see it, thus the confusion. Haven't got it out yet. The coolant ports ,both ends of the heads had a 25% blockage, because of this builders love affair with tubed sealant.

Back again , mooching for info... Well have the trickflow track heat on, and just have some vac lines to hook, ..now I have the accufab 75 on with the egr spacer with the valve off , and a plate blocking the missing valve. I still have the lightning maf on the end of the anderson power pipe, and was wondering if anyone thought I could still use this. with trickflow 170 heads with 21 lb injectors.

That Track Heat seems to be missing a couple of vacuum fixtures?

Was putting in a reply ..looked at my monitor .. It was gone.. so maybe you will get a double up...Yes it has a mafia chip set, had a supercharger tune will get a NA tune... Tuner says he can deal with the 90mm/21lb injectors.. I'm thinking it may be marginal. I also have 39/42lb in jectors. And am thinking about one of the new programmable ecms. Any ideas?

I can understand deleting the EGR, but where are you drawing vacuum for the Fuel pressure regulator?

i have put the three prong tree back on. The egr valve was banging into the fpr..so made a plate to go where the valve was.The track heat pic was not of my track heat. Confusing I know, and I still have to find a place for my Moroso air/oil sep.
