Using an 8mm socket, remove the two 6mm

screws that retain the thermostat housing. Set

the housing aside to be reused later. Leave the

factory thermostat and O-ring seal in place as

they will be reused (provided they are in good

condition). (See Fig. 5.2-a.)

B.

Locate the supplied thermostat housing adap-

tor and hardware. Using the two 6mm socket-

head screws, install the housing adaptor as

shown. (See Fig. 5.2-b.)

Using the 6mm hardware, washers and

O-ring provided, reinstall the thermostat hous-

ing. Attach the previously removed resistor to

the housing as shown. (See Fig. 5.2-c.)

Reinstall the intake manifold removed in a

previous step. Check to see that the rubber

intake runner gaskets are in place and undam-

aged. Make sure the cylinder head surface is

clean.

Lower the intake manifold onto the cylinder

heads.

F.

Install the ten factory 10mm headed manifold

retainers, and tighten to factory specifications.

G.

Remove the small clips that retain the factory

fuel injectors to the fuel rail. Remove the fac-

tory fuel injectors and set aside. These will

not be reused.

H.

Locate the supplied fuel injectors. Lubricate

the injector O-rings with clean motor oil and

install into the fuel rail. Reinstall the small

retaining clips onto the injectors.

Lower the fuel rail/injector assembly onto the

manifold, making sure that the injectors seat

properly into the manifold. Secure with the

four factory 8mm headed bolts.
