86 LB9 reassembly help

I got an 86 camaro with the lb9 that the previous owner began but never finished a head swap on. The head and lower intake are installed. I need help with the driver side exhaust manifold and accessory bracket installation and the TPI reassembly. I have repair manuals but the pics in them suck! Any help would be GREAT!!! Pictures would help a lot. This car looks to be 90% stock so stock is what I'm looking for.

Thanks.

Re: 86 LB9 reassembly help

Thanks that looks like it will take me a long way.

Now where does the wiring harness go? Ie inside or outside the runners.

Re: 86 LB9 reassembly help

stock outside of the runners, it looks better to run it on the inside for aesthetics.

Cool! I wasn't sure if it would reach both ways or not.

Re: 86 LB9 reassembly help

I can't recall if the alternator wire need to be rerouted or not.

Re: 86 LB9 reassembly help

those diagrams and pictures are insanely helpful. you should post those in the tech data section. i would have loved this a few weeks ago when i was putting together my front end.

For sure! On these cars that don't have a serpentine belt system the brackets are way confusing if your not very familiar with them.

I'm happy to report that the car has been running great for the last couple of weeks! Thanks again!!
