well found a frayed wire to my purge control valve--fixed that and installed a different front 02 sensor. The one coming out did look like it had not enjoyed the ride. Better now but havent took a ltft look as of yet---need to drive it a little.
Now also getting a 2004 code---seems my apv is a little sticky---sigh will it ever end----HOPE NOT!

If you end up working on a heat shield, I would like to see one down like Racing Beats shield for thier TII engines,,, Very simple, very clean, looks easy to install also considering our engine bays, and maybe instead of having the studs comd off the LIM they could be incorporated into the exhaust mani bolts.

How do you install this ?

Thanks Phil---great pics and exactly what I was looking for--looks like he used 3" aluminum pipe+connectors.
I am thinking of using a 3 1/2 OD pipe.

Well, almost completed Wesses install but hit a road block. Ok , I went to remove the bolts to hold the heat exchanger and spun the metal tab that seats in the plastic of the rad. Any ideas?

Moon--- you talking about the oem radiator --right?
sounds like it is a nut and bolt time? Just drill through and use a nut on the backside or reem the plastic out and install a nut there--anchor with a good automotive silicone sealant like window weild.
Got ya RR and thanks--no rush just dont forget me?
