Reinstallation of Blower and IC Tubes...
Hi guys!
Unfortunately, I'm here to ask once again for some help.
I'm in the process of reassembling everything after replacing blown HG's. I'm actually pretty close to being done, but over a month has elapsed since I started taking everything apart, and I'm starting to get a little foggy on how it all looked when assembled.
I'm at a point where I think the blower and intake plenum needs to be bolted back on (they are still together as an assembly with the TB). I have the inlet elbow bolted on already, and the lower IC tube is in position, but not bolted up. The rad and IC are not yet back in the car. The injectors and fuel rails are reinstalled.
My question is, can I bolt the blower back down, with the blower top still bolted on, and then deal with installing the upper IC, and sealing all IC connections sometime later when I have the rad and IC back in the car?
I found the radiator draincock had been snapped off when I went to drain the coolant after the HG's blew, and I'm having trouble replacing the draincock, so that's what is holding me up from putting the rad and IC back in the car right now.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards,
Sean
