Took pics so i figured id post em..
Decided that since i got the new yorker (http://www.turbo-mopar.com/forums/sh...ht=free+yorker) out of my driveway for a while, i should finish putting back together the spirit thats been sitting since.. spring i guess? Took all of 10 minutes get it running from where i left it many months ago and then a lot longer than that to get it to run right, but i finally got it going smooth.
Messy. Got a drop-in late style rad/ic combo for $35 locally so put that in. Then i got this idea that i could probly cobble together pipes for it from stuff i had lying around
I had.. a pile of mismatched terrible looking scraps of hose, some log t1 couplers, an old mazda mx-6 bov, some pieces of 2 1/4" exhaust pipe from 4 to 8" in length, and some 2" pvc angles.
Lower radiator hose from a 3.9l v6 looks like a good donor
After cobbling a bunch of pieces together i was only missing one short section, but i was out of junk to splice!!
Or so i thought.. just in case, i went all the way to the back of the back yard and checked the 2.6L executive sedan...
Huzzah! Yes, i took an extra throttle body with me to test-fit
Hooray! That clear hose is my Harbor Freight boost gauge mounted to the windshield wiper for now..
It sorta works. I think the stupid mazda BOV starts leaking like crazy at ~8psi.
I did drive it around a bit. But unfortunately both it and the new yorker have slight knocking noises so looks like they'll be back together in the carport again sometime soon so we can check em out
