dam i like the color of that paint... looks original as hell did you paint the stat housing and head bolts too?  that might be the cleanest engine bay ive ever seen....

That TGP is insanely nice, congrats on the purchase Ken. The door panel carpet looks like it will need to be reglued soon(bulking up). It was like that in my red car when I got it. I removed the panel, scraped some of the old glue off, quickly gave up on removing the old glue, then resprayed new glue on the door and the carpet itself. Now it looks like it did stock.

As far as a vacuum source goes, you could remove the plug in the rear of the intake manifold(where the brake booster hose would normally be on a vacuum brake equipped GP) and add a cheap vacuum block there to source a bov, aftermarket boost gauge, etc. off of....or just throw a single barb fitting in there for the BOV if that's all you need to source. I think the fitting is held in with a 8mm(or maybe it's 5/16'') male pipe plug socket. I can check to see which size male plug socket actually fits it for you if you want me to. I have the plug laying in one of my toolboxes out in the garage.


Those pink tops are 21lbs/hr according to Ford's ratings. So they're probably flowing about 24-25lbs actual on our fuel pressure. I'm guestimating there based on the fact that my Ford "19lb" injectors actually flowed just shy of 22lbs @ 43.5psi when I had one flow tested.

Thanks Mfewtrails!  I have a 3/8" extension I ground down to take that plug out ;) Yeah I'm going to get a barb fitting today at lowe's to run my bov off the back.  I'm also going to make an stainless vacumn block clip since my plastic one has cracks in it and will probably break first time I touch it! 

I'll get on that door panel stuff once I re solder the RKE box and fix the AC.  I tried to put some R134A in it last night but the compressor would not kick on......I even tried jumping the terminals on the compressor, no luck.  Ryan I might hit you up for your warranty on that compressor if you still have one.

Oh and I won the auction on that 93 radio so hopefully no more hum anymore!  I'm going to try to get some more pictures this weekend when I'm out of town for a wedding ;)  I'll post up, I love this car, it is really smooth with this tune.  Speaking of the tune I checked it out last night and it is really not that bad, it is a touch rich but the blms are around 123-125 which is not bad.  I'll probably just leave it the way it is for now!

I have a 3/8'' extension that I grinded down to remove that plug also. :laugh: I found a set of pipe plug sockets after removing the plug and went ahead and bought them for future use.
