Well it does. It fits in there. Its just really snug. But it's the only free vacuum port and it the right length to connect to it. So if the shoe fits, as they say.....

THANK YOU!!!! :bows::banana: so i guess you just ram that barb in there? weird.

ok last question. this a/c line isn't in the vacuum diagram. it is a 1/4 barb, and the distro block is a 3/8. so im wondering if it even connects to the disto block or some where else that i'm not seeing? i think it connects to the distro block because its right next to it, but the difference...

sweet. thanks guys. i wasn't able to see the fitting under the throttle body and it got me really confused when trying to hook this stuff up. i knew i was missing something.

well i broke down and got got a digital service manual off ebay, but it wont be here for like a week. if anybody could snap a pic of the vacuum lines behind the intake and to the passenger side of the intake i'd really appreciate it.

you could by a used xcal 2 on ebay. it can read codes and you can use it to put a tune on your computer in the future if you plan to mod the car...

I am re-installing the marauder engine after a rebuild, and have it almost all done, but i can't find the pictures i took of the vacuum connections. I need to know what lines attach to the canister purge valve mounted on the cowl, i just don't know which goes on top and which one goes on the...

no **** you are still missing the point. i never said anything about the drive system being the same which is what your original comment suggested i was talking about DAYYUMM YOU SOLVED THE 100 YEAR MYSTERY FIRST!!! CONGRATS!!! i was saying just that the power bands are similar. not the...

0* advance since i was talking about advance. i figured it was understood since i was replying to the op and he was referring to advance.

well maybe for a mechanic or machinist perspective, but for someone who wants a shop to build the engine (like the op) i would rather choose one with experience with my particular motor as i am sure most consumers would.

see how similar they are compared to a PD blower?? not the same but similar. a bigger turbo would have made it look even more similar. http://www.timskelton.com/lightning/race_prep/powertrain/images/eaton_v_kb_v_turbo_v_cent.jpg turbo impeller...

and i never said a centri will make as much power as a turbo, just that their powerbands are more similar than compared to a positive displacement blower. turbos are more efficient because they use engine waste to create their power and dont consume power from the belt system like a centri.

no ****. i didn't say they were exactly identical. the faster you rev the engine the more the pulley spins. also the faster you spin the engine the more exhaust gas it makes. which is why centris and turbos make power in the upper rpm range and dont make boost at lower rpms. they don't hold as...

i contacted gearheads and they didn't even get back to me with a quote when i was searching for a builder with 4.6L experience.

i have done this on multiple vehicles with no ill effects. i have done it with seafoam, marvel mystery oil, and straight water.

damn 4k total for a used factory engine? i paid less than rebuilding my engine and forging the internals, but i saved some money pulling it myself. no way i would spend 4k to buy a a used engine and have it installed. like you said i would have the head gaskets checked, compression checked...

centri's act more like turbo's so the faster you can spin the engine the more power it will make, not like a roots style where the boost comes on early in the rpm range. for a centri car, if i were using the 98' cobra cams, i would degree them to 0*. i have read articles where na 4.6l dohc's...

i went a head and did forged rods and pistons, polished the stock crank, a valve job on the heads, got it bored .020, new timing chain and components, 98 cobra intake cams. after its all said and one i will have a bout $3-3.5k in the engine build, and that was pulling it myself.

i am having mine rebuilt right now and got a local fort worth guy to do it, but the only place in dallas i could find that had experience with the 4.6 and a good rep was true street motorsports the starting price just for the labor of tearing down the engine and putting back together was $700...
