Cam Swap - Day 6 - Update

Yes, another update for everyone. Yay!

The car is 98% back together. I just need to put the alternator in, a couple of hoses, and put all the fluids back in her. I am stopping for the night because the GF and I are going out to see Resident Evil. Otherwise, the car would have been running tonight, hopefully

Things broke but still need fixing:

Two hoses that go into the throttle body. I don't know what they do, but one of them goes to the idle air control canister. Anyone know if thats important? Can I drive it to the nearest orilley's or something and buy the new part there?

Anyways, This car should be running tomorrow, exactly 1 week after I started the swap.

You're replacing that lower radiator hose, right? When the pump starts sucking on it and the hose collapes, it's not gonna be cool (no pun intended).. hehe.

Have fun.

Its going to collapse? The old spring in the hose was corroded to hell. So, do I need to put a new spring in it? Or just buy a new hose... DAMNIT DAMNIT DAMNIT.
