INTRO: My name is Andrew :waving: and I have just purchased a '77 Camaro with a 305 in it. I paid $850 for the car so it doesn't look like much right now but has potential. At this point, I am in the process of installing an Edelbrock 2101 Performer manifold, and a Holley 4150 carb. It's now on the block and bolted down but I have a few issues...
First of all, trying to get the info I need out of the Haynes Repair Manual is a joke. (not laughing...) There's a hose that goes from where the EFE system attached to the old carb which goes down to this thing attached to a bracket on the passenger side header that kind of looks like an ERG valve with a metal tube that goes down under the engine then? What do I do with this system now that I'm installing a new Holley 4150?
Another thing: I was cleaning off the thermostat housing and broke the thing that comes out of it. Do I even need this? Of course I looked in the Haynes manual and it shows a thermostat housing with the radiator hose attached- that's it. Am I to assume that I don't need that either and can replace it with a thermostat housing which only has a place for the radiator hose hook up?
Thanks in advance for your help! :beers:
