ok engine bar completed just need to weld the body mounts in to the car. corrently bolted to the engine bar at the ends. this bar basicly hanges from the frame behind the susp. consol and loops down under the motor. there are more shots of the various parts that went in to the bar here . the bar looks like i would think they would do this conversion from the factory ( with better welds ) , it basicly hands the engine from as inline with the motor mounts on the engine as possible, there by elimanating as much torque on the mounts as can be and similating the factory bar as much as can be done. all the bar needs now is a clean up from the welding with a grinder and paint.
and yes i have measurement for any body who wants to make one. here is a few pics one of the complete bar |

second pic shows the manifold installed and bolted down, basicly i unpluged the injectors and when i rotated the manifold i pluged the injectors wires back to were they belong on the block. and then i rotated the coil pack 180 degrees so the spark plug wires are in the proper location as well. other problems where the idle control and throttle position sensor wires are now too far away from the harness, as well as the idle control is right where the alt needs to go. so i figured i would flip the throttle body 180 degrees, this worked beautifully except now the idle control did not line up with the hole in to the air distibution body, but as luck would have it the intake for the egr is close enough for the wires to hook up to the idle control and with nothing but a new gasket and reaming out the holes it will fit. which might not be as effective due to air flow reasons but it will allow the idle control to bleed air in to control the idle and it closes of the egr intake. now i just need to make a blank for the factory idle control hole.
i also had to take apart the throttle linkages for the cable and cruise cable to clear the alt but i wont have cruise any way it just simplifies the throttle cable hook up. blue arrow is idle control and the red arrow is the throttle position sensor Attached image(s) |
