Thread: I need your Engine Bay pics!

there is a thread on here for all of this.

http://www.grandprixforums.net/showt...ngine+pictures

Help me help you.

Show me what you still need to connect and I (we) can tell you where they go.

A better picture of the cluster of connectors will help.


Here is a picture of the spark plug wires, it does not matter that this engine is supercharged as its all the same.

And what did you paint the exhaust with??

I sure hope its header paint or something, or else it'll just melt and burn off.

That ground connects to the trans on the front side iirc

Did you look on top of the trans where I mentioned? Whats not hooked up? You'd have to remove the airbox to see what I was referring to.

That blob you pulled up by the airbox, runs along the frame at and to the trans (big round plug) any little plugs on it should fall to the park neutral switch, the eyelets bolt on the lowest and frontmost transmission stud with the battery negative cable via a 15mm nut.

The other side, the wire you have by the rad cap, goes to the back and behind the coils, runs down the motor to the crank and cam sensors. You are the man with all the diagrams in all your other threads, where's the ones on electrical routing?

There's more detail of more stuff than you'll ever be able to use. I'd suggest writing a note to your wife and packing a lunch/dinner before you log in.

PS.. I didn't need to go to my car. I could describe the routing to you in detail,....like the arrow on the big gray plug faces straight up (doesn't point up) and it'll slide right onto the main trans connection right on the upper driverside of the trans.

I'd also suggest that you take detailed pictures before pulling something apart if you aren't 100% sure of where things go. It works great when I'm doing something different/new.

K, I'll take the air box out and start digging, unless removing the driver side wheel would be easier?

No man take off the airbobox the connectors are right there. Follow the shift cable down to the trans you'll see what were telling you about
