Cool thx much. This gives me motivation to dig a little deeper into this. I figure the diapham will stay put where the general put it. Good idea with the cable though, I never would have thought of that !

In between calls and emails I got my bracket fabbed up today at work. When switching from the orig Gen1 Intake to the Vortec intake I re-bent the original throttle / TV bracket to make it fit. So I was not surprised when I went to bolt the cruise servo back on to it I ended up 1.5 inches too high to bolt it to the back of the head. A quick rummage thru my toolbox looking for a small section of flat bar and I found a lock hasp. The hinged part has the same 3/8 hole, its elongated giving me the adjustment I need. And it's roughly the same thickness ( bonus ). So with a quick zip of the death wheel and a few shoddy welds the bracket is solid again. Satin black paint will forever hide the sin of welding thin stock with an Arc Welder whilst using the wrong rods. But Bah !!! its behind the head anyhow !!

I'm hot, sticky, and in dire need of beer ( and a shower ). Another great day at work :).

no Hooking Aint Easy ! I am indeed a wh*re for the money or saving money... either way its for the greater good !
And I may take you up on your offer for the missing pcs being the check valve and the 3 way nipple ( saying 3 way nipple out loud sounds kinky somehow ).

However this project may get put on the back burner for a while, Big job coming into work which will consume me, my family ( higher power willing they don't revolt ) and my free time for the next few weeks in the quest for small riches and other financial rewards !
