I am going to put in the 60mm tb that i picked up. What am I going to need to replace the hose fron the AFM to the TB? I'm sure this has been done and I know there can be no leaks so does anyone have a proven way to do this?
I pick up the engine Friday and start working on it Saturday. If family and friends forget I even exist.

i used a afm to air cleaner tube from a turbo zx, its the right diameter, and it has the right bend if you cut it to the right length. it doesnt include a spot for the cold start equptment, but that could always be adapted. ill post pics if you would like

Some pics would be great Thanks First car I've ever rebuilt so I really appreciate all the help I can get I just read the other post. What will a turbo afm do with a non-turbo? I've never heard of this being done. Whats the improvement?

the turbo afm with n/a guts just flows a bit more air, its harder to plumb and isnt worth it if your car isnt modified very much, ill go get you some pics.

I had to swap a turbo AFM into my NA chassis and it was a PITA to get that thing to fit right. I just ended up cutting the original AFM bracket out and installing the AFM upside-down to gain plenty of clearance. Of course I swapped the entire turbo engine in with the AFM It's a little more difficult then making it fit with an NA motor cause you dont have all that room due to the J-Pipe being in the way.

I hear ya loud & clear on that one big buddy... and it gets a wee bit more tight w/ IC pipes.
