The EGR blockoff is complete, painted and installed:

The throttle cables are now shortened and installed with new cable stops... the tranny kickdown stop hole on the throttle body bell crank had to be enlarged. I've left the tranny cable intentionally long and will trim it after I test drive and adjust it. Both cable adjusters are the transmission cable type:


Now for the inlet air duct... this piece came from a junkyard donor - mid-'80s Camaro:

I pulled the pipe and found that a 1/4" brass pipe fits perfectly to make the CCV connection. I originally intended to combine this piece with another hose, thus the piece of PVC that I was going to cut as a coupling, but that idea dodn't work - so ignore the PVC elbow:

AFAIK (and hope), everything's finished except the nose drive brace and I need to go to the shop to get a tab welded with the brace on the truck, so that'll come after I get it running:



So, if it'll run, I'll take it to the shop and weld the nose brace and install the blower belt after burning off the old gas.

Right now the battery's on the charger and I guess the first moment of truth is at hand. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />
