Planning on running a hose and from the head outlet to the radiator. It would look cleaner capped off but don't want any cooling flow problems. Air lock release makes sense.

They work on certian applications. 02 trucks from what I've read. Think the consensus is even not going complete 90* they should flow better than the 78 mm full open.

A picture of the 2 side by side speaks volumes.

Well still waiting on the gasket maker. Shipped from CA. Did get out and hook up the TAC module and TB. Good news it works as expected.

It is on. I was about to pull the darn blower knowing I would not be able to get one of the bolts out of the J-tube. Bottom passenger side, turns out there wasn't a bolt in it? Started, idled and couple trips up and down the road says its working fine.

After a bite to eat gonna swap the 16" wheels on and head to the track tonight. Only mod being the new TB since last time to the track. 50-60 degree low humidity weather. Hoping to pull a new best. Wish me luck!

wish i had my truck back, but it'll be a while. i'd come down to mtn park and visit if i had it. that's a big damn single. just a question, call me stupid, but why do chevy's use a singe port TB? mine is a twin 53... how does that flow in comparison to your single 90? i heard somewhere that a single was better for taller RPM's but i dont know.
