Dan,
The IAS, TPS and MAP are factory components (any year so they are compatible
with the computer). The ones I received with my 4 BBL are the 97 - current
components. Linkage I still don't know about yet. I need to set an M1
manifold and a factory manifold side by side and see what needs to be done
to make all brackets fit and drill for injectors. The 4 BBL is a beautiful
piece and the fact that it can be had for $450.00 makes it one heck of a buy
(if it can be made to work). The linkage (although beautiful) doesn't look
like it will hold up to the rigors of daily driving, but I could be wrong.
Unlike the factory 2 BBL TB, the 4 BBL doesn't have bearings for the
throttle shafts to ride on (back to the days of Holly carbs.). The only
manifolds that it will work with would be the M1 or the MPI manifold, the
MPI hasn't been released yet. My early thoughts.......
