Aussie Right Hand Drive Conversion

Hi All,

I've had a 84 305, quadrajet camaro for a while and I'm currently in the process of cleaning up the entire engine bay, what I have found is that when the conversion was changed from left hand drive to right alot of the emmission hoses, wires are all over the place, I was hoping that someone with the same vehicle could send me a heap of photos of their engine bay (air filter off), or someone can point me in the direction of some good text specifically on the hose and wire setup

Thanks to anyone who can help

Cheers

Tils,

Welcome Aboard!

I might not have a lot on the wiring, but this may help with your hoses:

If your's is a US model:



If your's is an "export" model:

I've an '82 right hand drive converted Trans Am, done by Maracoonda Auto in Queensland. I pulled my emissions stuff off which made my car run better. Why do you want to connect yours back up?

I don't - I'm ripping the air con and everything else that is not essential. At the moment there are hoses that go no-where, are blocked up with screws, I want to get back to what is should be so I can start removing

If you could post a picture of your engine bay, I could point out some things if you like. I also removed my air con and some other bits.
