ran into a couple problems last night.
the Tbird fuel rail hits the sensor mounted in the hard black heater lines(so i gotta switch back to the mustang rail.
the gt40 lower doesnt have extra 1/2NTP holes in the back of the intake. one would be used with the EGR heater bypass. so i have to plug off the small one on the hard heater line.
also no extra hole to use aftermarket temp gauge...so im gonna drill the hard heater line for that.
hope i dont run into more issues...TBC
