Yea it with my still camera that happens to take video. Its open headers so the new exhaust will be on soon. The only thing thing left to do is a shifter cable bracket for the tranny, flex loom some stuff, etc

What I want to know is if the Gen 2 hood closes.::wtf::

Doesn't look like it is even close. Would hate to have to do a cowl hood. Like the sleeper look.

I'm going to do everything I can to keep the stock hood. I think it will fit but I've got to do a custom IAC valve before I try to put the stock hood on.

Use a GT IAC that has a nipple on it. Then mount it angled on the old EGR port, unless you're using it.

no egr.

What year GT?
 
RE: SHE'S ALIVE!!!

No no no, you block off the old IAC port on the plenum, and MOVE the IAC to the back of the blower. Then plumb 5/8 hose to the inlet tube and run it to the relocated IAC.
 
RE: SHE'S ALIVE!!!

OOOOOOOOOOOH that might be fun. So your saying just block off the stock location and relocate it to the EGR port. both my mark and cobra IAC's dont look like that what are the extra ports for?
 
RE: SHE'S ALIVE!!!

Instead of having both of the mating surface, it has one on top and one of the bottom.
 
RE: SHE'S ALIVE!!!

i'm sorry I'm not seeing what your saying.::wtf::
The stock location has 2 holes and it sits on top. The EGR has one (I think) and It looks like it might bolt up.
 
RE: SHE'S ALIVE!!!

The GT valve has only one port on the mating surface where it bolts up to the intake. The other port normally seen on the bottom is located where that plastic or alu pcap is on the cobra and lincoln IACs. It won't bolt up directly, but make a simple adapter to mate it to the EGR port and then plumb the other end to the inlet tube before the TB. That's exactly is what the passages in the TB are doing.

You could even drill and tap the EGR block off plate, put a barb on it, then make a plate to bolt to the stock IAC, drill and tap two holes, plumb it all together and put a plate on the holes in the plenum.

Basically you need inlet from before the TB and outlet after the TB.
Since the EGR hole is already there why not use it.

so your saying take the blockoff plate for the EGR thats on the back of the blower, drill a hole in it, mount the GT IAC to the modified block off to the back of the blower then take a hose from the IAC to the pre-trotle body and wire.

as simple as that.

If you don't want to buy the GT IAC, you can do the same with a cobra or lincoln IAC but you will need another plate shaped exactly like the IAC gasket since you can't tap the IAC directly.
