You will need one of those speedo cable adaptors as others have used on here (check jeffsj's build thread), you will need something similiar to what he used. Your engine harness will connect to the adaptor and then the VSS wire from the ECU will connect to your new gauge.For the VSS, I kept my QT and I'm planning on using the original speedo so it sounds like I don't need to hook up the VSS until I swap out my gauges for new ones???

They heat the TB up. I've never hooked them up.msh227 wrote:thanks lobie, I only saw one port coming off the head and it was on the driver's side. What is the purpose of these ports? And is there a downside if I don't hook them up and just cap the port coming off the head?
The ports on the head are steam ports. They help prevent steam pockets on the heads. The ports should be the highest point on the heads.msh227 wrote:thanks lobie, I only saw one port coming off the head and it was on the driver's side. What is the purpose of these ports?

I know this is old, so if you have already taken care of the steam line, disregard...msh227 wrote:thanks lobie, I only saw one port coming off the head and it was on the driver's side.
