Problems installing Wagner short intake, need help(+)

[Error404]

Not on mine either.
I used the dizzy fork stud for the earth point.
Use a 150deg silicone hose to connect the ISV alongside the manifold.
ISV ally pipe needs bending a bit to be a perfect fit.

I think there’s some pics in my project thread if that helps

My IM came with a bent pipe for the ISV.
seems that not all IMs were delivered the same

Mine all fitted fine. For plumbing the ISV back in I used the original small 90deg black rubber hose for a while and swapped it out for a silicon one later. The metal pipe and the supplied silicon fitted ok.

Cruise control might be a challenge..

ok.... so..... I can put the old IM grounds on one of the IM bolts, and the ground for the coil loom onto the dizzy for stud... that works...

ISV I guess can almost go anywhere, but the bent metal tube with a bracket doesn't seem to fit anywhere? I understand it comes out of the small elbow coming out of the hose from IC to TB (which is itself pressed hard against the air con low pressure sensor)

I have made a water hose from my useless old Samco and lovely new Roose ones - with 2 joiners... at least it fits and won't have 2 holes worn through it...

Error - I have looked at your project thread, it does help.... but has anyone got a clear picture of the metal hose and ISV in place?

[A80Avant]

Really?? not on mine.......!

supplied hoses don't fit properly, no earth points, it is a proper pain to move stuff to fit this.... considering contacting Roose to have some hoses made which fit...

Still working out the best way to fit the ISV.

Also .. has anyone fitted cruise control with the reverse IM?

Almost wish i hadn't started this....

I have on mine. Works as well! Doesn't look to fancy, but in order to do this I had to relocate the isv

[LHD_Kid]

Vas - you mean you somehow fitted the cruise control diaphragm?

[Error404]

Like I said I had to alter the bend on the Wagner ISV pipe as it wouldn’t clear the AC condenser. I also had to relocate the AC switch plug bracket.

[LHD_Kid]

the bracket welded on the bent pipe... is this to bolt it to something, or for something to be bolted to it?

[newsh]

It bolts to the IM, just sorting some pics, back in a min.

BTW, I finally fitted those door cards a few weeks ago and got a corner seal for the driver’s side in Colesy’s GB
Fitted that and well pleased

Whilst this thread is still active ( is that proper use of "whilst" by an 'merican?) what have Wagner or other front TB intake manifold owners done for a front support for the radiator ???- the intake is smack where the stock mount attaches to the slam panel.

You can see the rad end of my “steady bar” in the pics above, it curves round under the plastic cover and attaches to the slam panel near the bonnet pin.
