Exclamation Renix w/HO Head Swap-Need Some Clarification...

Hey, sorry to double post, but not getting too many definitive answers and I'm desperate and on a time constraint. My daily is dead and I need it back!

My thread I started was in Advanced Tech, trying it here in OEM.

This is the link:

Again, really sorry to double post this.

I can't say much, my exact knowledge here has more holes than Swiss cheese! I thought is was pretty straight forward. As you know your keeping the Renix sensors. As far as the EGR tube, nothing fancy there. I might just look at some others to see if it bolts right up or something needs to be tweeked. The 92 map is still on the firewall. Your coolant temp sender in the back of the head needs to go somewhere. I think maybe you can drill/tap the HO head right there, or there are at least two places it can go in the T-stat housing. There's nothing fancy about any of the vacuum circuits, I don't think. Even the Map just uses manifold vac.

Cruiser54 has done a couple, I would for sure look there for answers to any specific question.

Hey! I lived in Laguna Beach for a few years, went to Thurston Intermediate.

Neat, Laguna is nice. And thanks for directing me to cruiser, I think I got it figured out now.
