Well I found the Tanks, Inc link in your thread. Where would I get the electrical lead pieces for the bulkhead? Thanks.

Just make sure you secure the bolt on the inside of the tank "in case the other guy removes both nuts" to tighten the wire lug on the post!
I am open to suggestions on what to use in a wet fuel environment |

I buy the tubing at NAPA because they're the only local supplier that sells tubing that isn't coated and I think the zinc plated steel and/or Nickel-Copper line looks more period correct on an old car/truck. I buy almost all of my fittings at http://fittingsandadapters.com That's where all the tube nuts and JIC (AN) fittings came from. I made the electrical bulkhead and replacement fuel sender plate on my lathe because the price for fuel bulkheads from any supplier that I've found is ridiculous for what they are. It's made of nylon which isn't affected by gasoline. Quote:

Re: Another way to skin the cat; the High Torque 292 LS swap
he used photosucker for his pics...there's something you can do with your computer that allows you to see them but I'm no computer guru and I don't understand it...put (photobucket) in the search...we have a thread on it how to fix it...

I wanted to add that the radiator hose information was spot on. I crossed those numbers to a Gates hose and it worked great on my truck. Saved me a bunch of searching.

Awesome build!
As to the great Photobucket debacle, there's an extension you can add if you are using Chrome Browser called Photobucket embedded image fix. It works great and I've had zero issues with it for over a year now. |
Re: Another way to skin the cat; the High Torque 292 LS swap
Just read through this and it gave me goose bumps. (is that ok?) That is one beautiful setup! So you could run a carb with a MAF sensor adapted on top of it? I have a 99 TA 5.7 and T56 I want to put in my 72 Blazer. I am probably going to use the stock harness. Man those wires are intimidating! I redid both harnesses on my trucks using stock stuff and that scared my neighbors (HAHA)!

dayj1, I ran across your thread in the middle of receiving ordered parts for the same type build (just a couple nights ago). I love the way you did the MAP on the TB!! My one question is this; what did you do with your Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor? My tune is a speed density closed loop. On newer MAF sensors, the IAT is a part of that component.....based on my research.
Your thread has helped enormously, thank you. I plan on doing my MAP just like you did. Below is a pic of the factory location of my IAT. Help :) Thanks Mike |

Re: Another way to skin the cat; the High Torque 292 LS swap
I truly appreciate the quick response!!! I think I've got it figured out now :) The grommet recommendation is a great idea!!! I had another question but just had a senior moment!!! Thanks Mike

Re: Another way to skin the cat; the High Torque 292 LS swap
ItHis truck has a MAF sensor mounted under the Intake so the IAT is mounted in that. On mine I went SD so I added the sensor to the underside of the air cleaner.

Re: Another way to skin the cat; the High Torque 292 LS swap
Perfect! What I'm doing is in the 78 link below....critiques are welcome. Thanks for the help fella's. Mike

Re: Another way to skin the cat; the High Torque 292 LS swap
I tried to find a pic of mine but cant find one. I took an IAT out of a late 90's gm car and put it in a grommet like Jonathan mentioned.

Re: Another way to skin the cat; the High Torque 292 LS swap
Now I remember! How are your truck injectors working in the fuel rail and intake. I did the same thing as you and cut-down the LS1 brackets. Great idea! Mike
