Problem
ok i just picked up a TPI system form the previous owner of my bird. its all dissambled. the runners are off, of the plenum, and everythign is taken apart and now im polishing it all.
but my problem is that i dont know how to assemble the TPI system once im done, i know how to put in the runners into the plenum and intake and such,
but i mean i dont know where the hoses, wires and all taht goes on the engine. the engine is out of the car. so if anyone could tell me how to put it back to running order and/or post wiring diagrams and hose diagrams i would be VERY GREATFUL. thanks for any help.

That looks like it for the vacuum lines, they really are pretty simple on a TPI car.
As for wires, easiest thing to do is figure out which sensor goes on which connector and go from there. Once you have that out of the way, things should get more obvious as to how they are on the engine.

ok well this is what i want to do, i want to have a cat on it thats hollowed, this will be a emission car, just without the emissions crap. what all can i take out from the engine bay to have less wireing for the emissions stuff.
like the charcol canister, and smog pump and such, i dont want any of tht junk, im gonna have a LT1 cam, ported/polished heads, and a 52-58mm throttle body. then shorties, catback and a 80 series muffler.
thanks for any info.
PS
but if i decide to go with emission headers where do the hoses go formt he headers and is there a way to redo them so they are out of the way, but still work and arent a drain on power/engine bay looks.
