what do you have the long part of the T connected to?<hr></blockquote>

Ha, good one. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Ok, there was an existing vac. line going to the existing fuel pressure regulator. I tied into it. Where the vac line came out of the side of the intake, that's where I tied the long side of the tee. Then the short side went on over to the existing fpr. I just pulled off that nylon line with the 2 rubber ends and put it on a shelf, using the new hose that came with the kit.

thats exactly where mine is going! thats good news.

one more question. Where exactly is the line from the long end of the T is going?

if yours is going where mine is going the nitrous pressure regulator must be messed up.from the looks of your pic its goin to that plastic sensor but im not sure.

thanks a ton!

The long end, goes to the very same fitting that used to have the vac. hose going to the fpr. It was a hose nipple coming from a black piece on the side of the intake. I think this is what you're talking about... I just stuck it on the same place where the old hose came off.

great!

thats exactly how mine is.


im going to call NOS about a new nitrous regulator.

thanks for all your help [img]smile.gif[/img]

Anthony, I sent you an email with a jpg.

The picture is of the installed tee, and it was 93k so I didn't have enough space on that f-body site to upload it, unless I deleted some other pics...

Let me know if you have questions.

I know it was a pain to reach back in there to work on that stuff...<hr></blockquote>


Could you send me this jpg as well? brucew@engineer.com. Thanks very much. I want to make sure mine is hooked up correctly.

You've got mail.

You went back a bit to find this thread. Way to search!! :cool: I had forgotten about it already...

Let me know if you have any questions.

Hey John_D, I can host that pic for you so you don't have to delete files off of your other site. Send it to me in email and I'll send you a URL back.

Well, I'm pretty sure I have mine connected wrong. I thought the line was the one on the drivers side that has the green cap covering a schrader valve on it. You're hooked up over on the passenger side. I just looked back in there in mine and I can't really tell what I need to hook into. I'll have to wait until morning when I get some more light, but any description of what I am looking for to locate the fuel pressure regulator would be helpful. Thanks again.

[Silver2000V6]

ok, I figured out where the fuel pressure regulator is and I can't reach the thing. I can reach the other end of the tube coming out of it though on the passenger side. I'll try to pull that tube off tonight and get my t fitting in. Does the tube just pull out? Don't want to break anything and I can't see where it hooks into the back side of that black piece.

It's a pain to get back in there...

The tubes should pull out, but the rubber hose will stick to the plastic tubing, so it will take some tugging, and maybe some twisting to get it loose.

The line will have pressure on it, instead of vacuum, when you're spraying. Not a whole lot, but some. So if possible, you should try to put one of those clamps on each connection, including that one back there on the fpr that is so hard to reach, so the line doesn't blow off.

I put the clamp on the hose first, left it just a little loose, managed to get the hose on the fpr, then reached back in there and tightened the clamp by squeezing it with needle nose pliers.

I didn't do this, but I think if you take the bolts out of the coil mounting pad, you can set the coil packs over to the side and reach the fpr more easily.

If you have an stb, definitely take it off until you're done. You might get a little more clearance on the passenger side if you twist the oil filler neck off temporarily too.

That other site went belly up anyway. They let their domain name registration lapse, and somebody else snagged it. The pics are at home, and I'm at work, so I'll take a look this evening and shoot it over to you.

Well, I got the system installed and working. I had to get a friend with somewhat smaller hands to come over and reach the fuel regulator for me, but it's done. I love it, except that I am already having clutch slippage. I guess that was to be expected.

I am going to install a window switch next I think. I guess every bit of safety helps. Anyway, thanks for the assistance and the pictures.

Hey John, could you email me your pics to rileyv6bird@yahoo.com ? Id really appreciate it because I need to see how you mounted your WOT switch and how your setup is. Thanx!
