A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Highway Stars doesn't know if they're going to get any more, opgi has a length of 37 in which is too short....as far as I can't tell no one has the correct length for a turbo buick. I might have to figure out how to make one of these "universal" length ones work.

universal ones require a pressure gauge to set.

Like Steve said - call a couple 2004r builders. Vince Janis out of akron ohio always treated me right.

Going to focus on getting it started now. It appears that the IAC has a aftermarket spacer the turns it from pointing straight ahead to a 45 angle over the cam sensor? What's the advantage, as it is in the way for setting the cam sensor?

The Iac angle boss adapter was so you have more room to run a bigger inlet tube.

Trying to sort out the wiring, not my strong suit. So much stuff has been hacked into over the years. Mark has the engine bay really sorted out but under the dash has me overwhelmed. What is the attached picture? Can't find anything that looks like it should plug into it under here
