does anyone know where the 2 water lines on the bottom of the TB go to??? anyone got any pics, makes it easier. also there is a steel line that goes straight back from the main front water pipe and there is a smaller line that sticks up, right next to the side of the intake manifold, where does that one go....
 
If we are talking about a 90' TB, the top one on the TB goes to the thermostate housing and the bottom goes to the "smaller line that sticks up". :D
 
here is a pic of the 4 lines I need to hook up....

maybe I am just getting confused because the TB lines are pointing downwards.

you can actually do away with that i believe thats your FIAV and it sends coolant to the tb which some believe is just adding heat towards it .Im thinking of going away with mines, I think ppl just loop the thermostat housing, and water pipe on one line to recirculate that ,and then just seal up the two opening on the tb so you dont have a vaccum leak.
Ive personally never done this yet, but this is how I think its done, but basically im just give you the idea so now you wont be in the dark when you search for it...:thumb:

By the way nice intake manifold

Hes talking about water lines not vacuum lines...


exactly!

Thanks "oldman"...just realized after looking at a DSM at the junk yard that the reason the lines look weird is because my SMIM sits lower than the stock one...
