Fuel Filter.. Racor 120a... Exhaust pic..
Here for the Two holes that were on the firewall for the a/c and Engine harness for the 3FE, I used the old Oregon License plate an made a panel for the fuel filter.. not sure if it will last but it looks cool.. Kinda pays homage to it's roots.. haha!
Not sure if I like the exhaust.. It sounds okay and I like the routing, just don't like how it hangs.. May need to adjust that.. Maybe so it just dumps down and not so hot rodish..

The End.. I think....
Anyways that about sums up my swap.. There are still a few minor things to do, but they can be done while I drive it daily.. Thanks to all who replied to my previous threads (mainly in diesel section).. All advice was great..
To those embarking on this, if your local drop me a line.. May be able to give you a hand.. I did all the grunt work without any help.. It's very heavy!! Haha!

Nice work MB!
Might call you over for some help taking out the 2nd 3B! The 81 has now been retired to the driveway!

How long have you had this rig? It looks like the one I almost purchased when it was for sale in Oregon back in February.

An untimely update to this thread. I bought this wagon just over 3 years ago and it has been faithful and a joy to drive.
This is my daily driver.
I have had tons of work done to it (all mechanical) and I cannot say that adjusting to the lack of power was too painful. I was previously driving a
71 FJ55 with a bad clutch for many years so this was probably a helpful stepping stone towards the non turbo'd 3B
