Damn, I hate coming into these projects "in progress". I always look forward to being able to just read from start to finish. This looks like a great project.

yep I think its the 3" adapter.. works out good! will be finishing her off end of the year!! can't wait!
x2, is there just one nipple on the tube between AFM and throttle body? Will you run a splittter to feed metered air into valve cover (for PCV) and ISC?
Tucker, isn't that the same air filter MMW is running on his 3FE-40?
Or, take the metal ISC port out of the rubber and weld it into the metal PCV piece.
I was thinking of taking the tube out of the rubber pipe and drilling a hole and quick steeling it?..thought that would look the best and pretty easy to do..
Post up a pic when you do, I would like to see this approach!
Ah!
Trying to remember why that didn't work on mine - now I remember, I am no longer using the steel tube in order to fit aircleaner in Pig engine bay:
Two solutions for the same issue. I didn't use the rubber connector and retained the metal, modified of course. Sometimes you just have to get creative.

Man, everyone has nice, clean, painted 3FE's! Oh well, at least my runs! 
Nice project. You're making some good progress.
Also, does anyone know where to pick up an extra EFI badge? I want to add one to the grill like some of the others have done.

You're the man! Looks like I'll be calling up CDan again.

Progress -
So I got the 40 home yesterday, but had to spend the afternoon clearing out the garage to get it back in
It's amazing how much stuff you gain having a baby ... oh well 
Got some time today and bolted the driveline together:
Stupid bolts I threw away only to figure out the 3FE ones were longer
Emery clothed the input shaft:
Installed the pilot bearing:
Flywheel and clutch plate:
Didn't forget the red loctite on the flywheel bolts
Clutch:
Driveline:
Stay tuned for the driveline going back in the truck next weekend
