Close on driveway space. and that is how my intakes work...Give me your old one and you get my nice newly reworked one for a small fee. Should have a clear driveway this week. I am working on getting red tied up this weekend. Should have it almost done except for the body work.

No EGR temp sensor. Why you need this EGR set up? I have these all the time. I normally throw them in the trash... Never thought about the Cali connections needing them. Let me know I am sure mmw68 would part with it.

No, I am just wondering because my EGR that I took off has the EGR temp sensor. I'm just wondering if the ECU will throw a code if I do not connect it back up. Otherwise, I guess I have a nice temp sensor for something else.

Port and polish

Here are a couple pics of the before and after polish on the head.

Polished

And the polished close ups. I concentrate on where the injector shot is delivered to the chamber. I open it up and relieve the transition so it has a nice clean shot going in. I will follow up with a smaller grit flex wand and get em nice and pretty.

Very nice!!!

Ok -made a little progress on the Warn 8274. What do you think?

I still need to wire in a better ground, and clean up the wires a little, but I'll do that once it mounted to the truck.

If you need some more info on the rebuild - see this thread.https://forum.ih8mud.com/tx-lone-star-land-cruisers-austin-chapter/199469-i-scored-8274-a.html

Update

OK Got the head finished off. Working on getting the TB all set up. Yes I am doing it on the bench per the FSM. I have everything else ready to bolt up so I should be ready to go tomorrow afternoon. Trying to get everything cleaned as I go.

More pics

Also I am ditching the vaccum fuel pressure regulator and going with my old reliable. Here are the pics of the frame rail retapped for the -6 an bulk head fitting. This will dispose of the need for a lot of vaccum hose!

 

[mmw68]

WOW - looks as if your making some great progress.

Are you going to adjust those valves while the valve cover is off?

 

[iaintscared1969]

Thanks I am trying to get it to paint on Mon. I thought you did those already??! I will check them though.

 

[mmw68]

I did the FJ62, Seriously - just see if any are loose, we can always do them later. Paint and Body is more important.

Progress report

Well the intake is all back together and I have run fuel lines for the new Aeromotive regulator. So here is the progress so contain your DROOL!! I am going to start cleaning up the harness tomorrow before it goes to paint just because it is irritating my creative bug!

 

[iaintscared1969]

Couple more

Here are a couple more shots of the fuel line and reg setup.

WOW - Now Iam going to have to clean up everything else in the engine compartment!!

Oh Hell..Iam going to have to get a new brake booster now, I can't have that POS next to that engine!!

 

[iaintscared1969]

Already ahead of you

Sorry I couldn't have that rusty booster next to it...So I started painting it already.

 

[pappy]

Be careful. The booster might not clear the engine with that extra layer of paint.

 

[mmw68]

Your always one step ahead of me.
