Hi all. Well, all is going well on my project and the questions will start flowing...
1. On the gt 500 fuel rail there is a fuel pressure sensor which my harness has no provision for(98 Cobra harness).. there is also a nipple on the sensor body. What can I do here? Can I just remove and put a block off plate here?

2. At the rear d of the blower, there is a bypass accuator(?). There are no wires(or provision for), but there is a nipple. How does this unit work and to what should I plumb the nipple?
See the pics for inspiration... 20190218_132516-816x612.jpg 20190218_132449-816x612.jpg

The bottom pic is the FRPS. Remove it and block it off. You can't use it. The top pic is the bypass valve. It needs a vacuum line run to it so it opens at part throttle and closes under boost.

Tommy your spending some good money and time on your swap. You should just upgrade properly to fore stuff. -10feed -8return and nice rails. Those rails won’t flow what you’re running to them.

Hey there. Thanks for the replies. All is going well and the motor is back in the car. My next puzzle is to make the intake plumbing. Space is tight , so I have to rout the intake over the valve cove r, keeping as low a profile possible for hood clearance. I am using a 90mm SCT MAF, so, I assume , keeping the volume of the intake consistent is key. I have plenty of room to extend the intake duct down low in the engine compartment to cooler air.
My question is where to put the MAF? Can I be at the end of the duct, with the air filter element, or further up?
I am making the ductwork from epoxy glass wrapped around a foam pattern. The picture shows the beginnings of the pattern.
Thanks all,
