as far as the AN fuel lines, I used
-6AN fuel rail fitting
-6AN 90* fitting (fuel rail side) rus610160
-6AN hose
-6AN straight fitting (fuel filter side) rus610020
-6AN to 3/8 tube adapter rus639210
dorman 600-155 IIRC (its the one that goes into the vette filter)

PS, what headers are you using? Hinson?

oops, meant 800-155, but was going from memory.

you cut it and put the -6AN to 3/8 tube adapter rus639210 on one end.

First pic is a plug over the older style valvecover nipple for the pcv system.

The second pic is an evap solenoid hose that would usually run back to the fuel tank to monitor tank pressure. The evap solenoid on near the intake/tb would then vent the fuel vapors into the intake to burn them off

Is the evap solenoid hose needed?? can i just disconnect it??? It seems also to be connected near the throttle body and then to the harness

UPDATES***
So I was bored and decided mock up my intake and filter to see how beast it looks.....

the intake is 4" diameter the whole way


Also i was trying to see how i gonna run my power steering setup with parts listed....
routing...

parts:
cooler:

fittings:

I need one more

x2

I hate the color of this hose so im planning to fabric dye it black


Im waiting on on a few more parts like the level adapter and i have to send out my pcm to get programmed...and then the ball should be rolling again....since my friend flaked on me i wasn't able to install the clutch lines and have to take the tranny back out to install them. After that last hump i should be sailing smooth!!!

take fuel rail off.
rotate 180*
reinstall.

this gives you fitting on the pass side, making your routing way easier

Default Mini Update

Okay so this is the first weekend I didnt have to work overtime so i got up this morning and tried to do a couple things first I took the fuel rail off and flipped it 180*(thanx to Sirwarrior) so that I would need such a long hose to reach it...

The only problem is that the valve covers dont really fit good any more and I kinda like them. They need to be notched but even after notching them it didnt fit properly..

its not notched here
I also tried to take off the shifter to put in the new lever adaptor but I cant access the bolts from inside the car so some cutting will have to be done in the near future.

this piece is so i can use my f-body 5.0pro shifter kit on the ls2 gto motor
Last I got the bright idea of trying to put the harness into the car and kinda put everything into place.......(Its a bit harder than i anticipated)

I kinda forgot where all the wires go since I didnt label the stock gto plugs or mark them. Thats not even the hard part, the most difficult thing is trying to get the plugs into that little hole in the fire wall...

After trying to get them into the hole for about an hour I gave up and decide that i need a hand so i will try again tomorrow.



SHAMELESS PLUG: thanx again PXRacing aka PXdrifter for the wiring job
