Stuff a rag into those open manifolds. You never know when something might crawl or fall into them.



Just what I was thinking, a paper towel in each opening.

Nice work going on here also.

top one, and back bottom 2




Top one is normally fresh air for the pcv system but on most cars it has been plugged on the air cleaner can. It now runs from a nipple off of the large black rubber air intake hose from the air cleaner can to the throttle body. If you have the air intake hose and it does not have the nipple in it then you may need to use the upper hose in the picture.

the lower two hoses are the freon lines from the condensor. these will only be needed if you want a/c.

I think the gaskets were felpro.

Its looking good! Did you find a 1/4 inch socket yet? I have a bunch of them laying around, so I could let you borrow one.
