that's post throttle body. u still have the hose that goes frmo the AOS to the J boot right?

Cass944

yep. i still have the crank cake vent hooked up. I was thinking about just sticking a small filter right on top of the AOS though

krystar

is it just a vent or does it need active vacuum?

xsboost90

you will want to put a hose from the AOS to the j-boot- and maybe a hose going to the vac. canister and heater- unless you are deleting your heat and a/c

Cass944

the heat is controlled by the vacuum nipple on the brake booster one way valve. the vacuum rez is T'd off of that line so that the heater controls still work when the car is off. thats why you can move the dials and you hear sounds going on behind the controls.

i dont really care about the controls working when the car is off so i got rid of the rez. i do still have the line going from the brake booster to the heater box though. and then also the line going from the heater box to the heater valve. those are all hidden behind the engine though so they dont matter much.

the AOS line *should* have vacuum on it but its not totally needed. if you cap off the PCV system all together the pressure will build up in the crank case enough to actually start pushing the oil vapors up through the piston rings into the cylinders which will produce a LOT of smoke out the exhaust. Ive had catch can lines freeze up before and that is usually the result. as long as the pressure has some place to go it should be good.

I might eventually attach a catch can to it somewhere with a filter on top of it. that way i dont get oil vapors building up on top of the engine anywhere getting my engine dirty

hehe cause that's the important part. keeping that thing sparkling clean :P

Those lines look nice.
What kind of paint did you use on the calipers?
I have tried VHT, Duplicolor, etc etc etc. It all fades and starts deteriorating after a year of what I would consider mild usage. The times I have tried these products I even took them down to bare metal, so its not an issue of prep.
POR15 has a product, I'm wondering if anyone has tried it. Might be better to start with rusty calipers.

i dont remember what i used... just some high temp red caliper paint i think...

I took the calipers completely apart and sandblasted them clean and smooth before doing anything with them though.

What kind of brake lines are those? They look sick.
