Guest TurboSedan Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 i bought this yesterday while at the salvage yard. it came from an '87 or '88 Celebrity with a MAF 2.8 MPFI V6. http://www.turbosedan.com/cutlass/engine/DSC01812.JPG http://www.turbosedan.com/cutlass/engine/DSC01813.JPG http://www.turbosedan.com/cutlass/engine/DSC01814.JPG http://www.turbosedan.com/cutlass/engine/DSC01815.JPG http://www.turbosedan.com/cutlass/engine/DSC01820.JPG it definately cleaned up the look of the engine bay Quote
Justin Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 Your car didn't come with that from factory? I thought they all had that.... Quote
Robby1870 Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 wtf is that thing?!??! Never seen that on any of my 3 W's Quote
Bossman429 Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 I remember those! I've only seen them on the 2.8 motor. Good idea, that's a little nicer looking than the shitty metal clip that the 3.1s came with. I'm sure there's plenty of those router things at the yards. When I ran the wires through the Beretta the first time, I ran them through the opening under the W/P housing and along the bottom of the intake manifold. It looked real nice because you couldn't see the wires sitting on the top of the motor, actually, you couldn't see them much at all. I only did it different the second time because running them under the intake required taking off the alternator, If I remember right. The second time I ran wires, I wrapped each wire in wire loom, and ran them all up and through that metal clip. It looks OK, you don't really notice it with the black wire loom. Quote
THe_DeTAiL3R Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 I think my 88' had that. I can't remember if it was plastic and i think I cracked it when I was changing the PS pump or something. Is that metal? Quote
Guest TurboSedan Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 yeah it's plastic. it uses small metal bushings where the 8mm bolts mount it to the plenum. i got the front spark plug wire router plus: - the KS pigtail (plus the KS itself), 4 rear block ground ring terminals, and the VSS section of a 3.1 MPFI wiring harness - PS high pressure sensor pigtail - AC pigtail - the hard plastic vacuum lines that run from the top of the TB to under the plenum for the FPR, MAP and cruise control - perfect serpentine belt cover/belt routing diagram piece - passenger side strut tower wiring harness cover - 3 alternator mounting bolts all for a whopping $5.25 Quote

GutlessSupreme Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 Never seen it before.. I want it though Quote
mfewtrail Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 Also never seen it before, both my 3.1's are rocking the "shitty metal clip." Quote
NOHC_WBody Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 Ditto. The only ones I've ever seen have been on 2.8's as well. Quote
HokemBokem Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 Yea thats a pretty cool little piece Quote
Regal_GS_1989 Posted March 5, 2005 Report Posted March 5, 2005 Huh, The 3.1 in My GS came with one. :? Quote
GutlessSupreme Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 Go figure.. I saw one on a 2.8 base GP in the yard today but it was all chewed up on one end :? only W in the whole yard too.. damnit. Didn't have time to look for other 2.8s. Quote
GOT2B GM Posted March 6, 2005 Report Posted March 6, 2005 My 87 Z24 has one that goes even further down beside the front valve cover. Quote
