another great ecm bracket (mounts flat) is out of a s10 blazer.. I think full size vans have goodo nes too, the silverado one was a weird shape, but was the smallest overall. we are using the s10 one on my buddies 69 gto and my dads 70 el camino

Fuel lines and oil lines look great!!! that what I'm going to do but I'm going to do it hardline and black braided lines,

I was going through my large coffe can of fitting last night looking for a adapter for the oil sending unit, what did you use, and the black fitting, have P/N,

My Rick Vapor Works Tank is supposed to ship Wednesday, when I ordered it the 3rd or 4th week of February, why the hell does everything take so long!!! so I'm starting to gather fuel system parts,

I haven't looked yet, but if my harness still has the oil pressure sending unit plug attached can I just leave it unplugged and use my gauge sending unit in its place? I already have the autometer adapter to go back there. I was told that the computer will not use the oil pressure sending unit anyways. Will it throw some kind of code if I dont attach it to the PCM?
