that shouldn't be hard at all if they take it little baby steps at a time.
Heat gun and a set of slip joint pliers will get the end to slide off the cable, than nicely with a good set of dykes (like i have, snatchon's) and cut some of the cable housing away and slip the end back over the cable, test and test again until it fits properly... shouldn't have any problems. _________________

Not all of us can afford Snap-On tools.
I'll try that out after the bash. Getting the car driveable is priority one right now. Everything else is secondary.  _________________

Do you have any left? |
Pm'd both of you guys. Shipping to Can residents is $7 more. Make sure you pay in US funds

if you'd like, bring a spare cable (to the bash), i'll show you how to. on that, i'll cut maybe 1/2" of it off. so you get the idea. bring dykes and a heat gun/slip joint pliers too. _________________

I'll bring my heat gun. I don't think Cob has one. I know he can bring dykes though. _________________

I guess you could. I will just cut a gasket for the adapter to plenum side, with bolt hole so it stays aligned. _________________

I just left my 3400 TB gasket on the plenum side of mine and it was fine. I'd rather have 2 gaskets and no vac leaks though.  _________________

I have a 3500 plenum. So there is no gasket (the TB uses an o-ring stock). I will cut my own for that part. That way it will be centered with the 4 bolts on the plenum instead of using a 3.5 gasket on that side to and having to hold it in place so the bore is centered. _________________

You could always use a hole punher on the 3.5 gasket so it stays on the bolts
All the flanges are sold, shipping out the last couple today. We'll make some more later, so make requests here... _________________

Mine still reserved? LOL! Is mine the 3400/3500 style or 3500 only? I was going to mock it up on the 3100 old intake if it's the 3400/3500 style until I get the cable bracket modified to work with the 3x00 cables. _________________

Did you copy/paste this from you PM, or the other way around?
You should know you have one reserved  _________________

| WHere do I make reservations at? I need a 3500 one, but would prefer a 3100/3500 one if at all possible. |
