MAP sensor FAST intake
MAP sensor FAST intake How do you guys hold the MAP sensor down? I've tried using RTV like we did on my buddies Vette but it keeps breaking off when I try plugging it in. 
This is what I did to mine 3 years ago and it still works fine. You need to create a permanent bracket that will create constant pressure on top of the MAP sensor. Visualize an upside down "L" with the shorter part of the L clamping down on the sensor and the longer part is the bolt to the intake.
* Replace the rear most intake bolt with a longer bolt of the same diameter & thread.
* Take a small bracket or piece of metal and insert the bolt through the bracket.
* Place the edge of the bracket on top of the MAP sensor and tighten the bolt
* It may take a little time to get the correct angle (by bending) of the bracket on the MAP sensor. Make sure the bracket is centered on the sensor.
* I also used a spacer and washer to make sure there was no play in the assembly.
A picture is worth a thousand words in this case, but hopefully it makes sense.
