Well, I did a little bit more work to the car yesterday and started to tackle the wiring aspect of the swap.
Here are a few pictures.

Here is the stainless steel braided throttle cable,


The 4th gen brake and gas pedal,


This is where I am mounting the Fuse box. I don't think I need it, but it has a terminal I can use for my battery wire that comes from the back of the car.


And here is the jumble of wires.

That's what happens when you cut someone's quote and take it's meaning wrong. If you continue that second sentance out a little further... "I don't think I need it, but it has a terminal I can use for my battery wire..."

BTW, looks nice Zepher! And if you do give it up for a Hon-duh, be sure to sell it off to us cheap, mmmmmmmmmmk?

Thanks guys.
The reason I don't think I need the Fusebox is because the harness that was on Julians car didn't have a fuse box. His had one relay and we put in a couple of inline fuses for the ECM power. Having that large terminal on the box makes my battery hookup really easy since I am using a really large guage wire, it's either 0/2 or 2/0 can't remember, but it's larger than 0 guage.

The valve covers aren't staying on the car. You can get them at summit or jegs, I think they are $135 a pair.

I am running a 4L60E with a TransGo shift Kit and Hurst Quarter stick shifter. I'll upgrade to a T56 sometime next year when I can afford it.

Oh, I'll never sell this car. That Honduh statemement was just a little bit of sarcasm.

I am almost ready to take a break from working on cars. We worked almost 2 months straight working on my friends LT1 swap. Installed a TransGo Shift kit in his car last night, took about 9.5 hours. I never want to do that one again. Major PITA.

All the connectors are there and the injector connectors have numbers printed on them, 1-8, which makes it easier.
I am at the point of elimiating wires, so a few of them will go away.

14.8 @92 in the gta and 14.2 @ 99 in the vette, couldn't get either to hook
