My buddy doms clean LT1 car, hes a member on here as well, just not very active. Was a ton of help today.
Rolled once of my benches outside to have as a large tool cart so we didnt keep having to go back inside to the tool box
Ready for its new heart.
BLS suggested Dolly on the trans, jack under the motor, and go jacks under the wheels. worked perfect, thanks bls.
Aligned as best we could before going up.
going up
going down !

There is still a ton of work left. My main concern is actually the MAP sensor. They barely hold in the FAST manifold. Poor enough that it actually pulled out when i moved the harness out of the way. i should have plenty of room to get it in due to HVAC being HVMIA.
Tommorow after work ill try to tackle the map sensor as well as the rest of the harness. Hopefully my new belts and AN fittings get here as well so i can do the alt belt and the trans cooler mounting.

Map is on the back of the intake ? Or on top of your intake? Mine can be in either location

My map sensor is held on by hopes and dreams. Came out while I was installing too and had to redo it. Eventually got it to stay when installing the FAST and it's stayed put for the past 4 or 5 years I've had it.

Pretty sure nothing. It only came out if something moved, so I left it that way and was very careful when sliding the intake under the cowl.

There should be a single hole for a small bolt (M4?) right next to the map port. I put a washer on the bolt and that was enough to clamp down on the outside of the map sensor to prevent it from backing out. That was on both fast 102s I've had

Small little ground "eyelit" on the section of harness with the oil level and crank sensor is signal to starter? Just trying to get wiring done on paper before in car is tackled
EDIT: This look okay to follow? the double grounds thing is odd, but whatevs.

You don't need the body grounds especially since its a unibody car. Wiring looks good to me. Personally, I'd run alternator straight to battery and battery lead to shut off switch.

So alt to battery instead of alt to cut off? And 1 cable from bat to cut off?

Its semantics IMO.
Either way the switch will see the current levels, BUT, you may mechanically overload the switch lug itself using it to hold two heavy gauge wires.
Mine is setup with the switch being the junction point, so far so good.

Refresh me, torque arm install done with rear freely hanging? Or with wheels on ground?
Also, since there is a supply and return fuel line running to the front, am I okay just leaving the return line there hanging around? Or does it need to be capped?

Suspension has to be loaded to tilt torque arm down/inline with trans, otherwise it will be pinned against the trans tunnel. With the car or rear half on stands, I use the floor jack to raise rear up.

I have a Crossmember mounted TQ arm, that effect it?
The car is already up on jack stands so i can do the wiring, i was going to pull the jack stands from the rear of the car and let the back tires sit on a spare set of jeep wheels i have so its under load.

New grommet for map sensor as well as AN fittings for trans cooler have arrived.
trans cooler lines run pretty close to the collector, im imagining this is pretty terrible since not only is the line itself maybe going to be damaged, but i want my trans fluid to not be boiling when it goes back in. How are you guys with LTs running the lines?
*** i dont have stock trans lines, i have -6an hose from trans to cooler
