I need your Engine Bay pics!

I'm at a standstill with some final connections and wire routing on my engine rebuild.

Could you email me some of your detailed engine bay pics? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Those aren't detailed. I'm looking for sections.

I'm not supercharged. There are significant routing differences.

Here's where I'm at.



For starters, spark plug routing. All mine are pulled out.


( 2 o'clock) There's a cluster of connections that come out from the firewall by the by the master cylinder/vacuum booster.

 
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.

High temp paint. :-)
Hope you baked that crossover in the oven first. And let it cure or else it will bubble up. And flake off and look like ****. Those connections look like they go to your transmission . the round OnE should go to the top of the trans and the other to the rear were your shift cable goes.

That ground connects to the trans on the front side iirc
 
Hmm... Sounds like 91 is on the right track. The ground bolts into the frame under the cruise control bracket.

There are 2 or 3 others, including a round plug in. I'm lost on those, and it's too freaking cold to go outside atm.

Also... ;-)

I got yelled at. LOL

I can see where the connectors plug in. They're literally inches from their counter parts in your second pic. Round into the round one and flat one into the flat one.
 


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.
 
I've got the engine Harness covered, just had to remove the ice to route the engine harness around the radiator hose.

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
 
Oh God...

I had both clusters pulled out and I was going to take a picture to post on here...

They plug into each other.

Herp derp.

Bartenders getting up at 8 am to work on their cars...
 
I routed the tranny stuff under the cruise control bracket and plugged it together behind the air box.

Seems right.

What clips to each rad support bar?
