I got back on the project today and finished the inlet tube with the Mass Airflow sensor mount.....Test fit and ready to go.....I just need to add a fitting for the valve covers venting into the tube.......I'll do that tomorrow and another thing off the list....

Got the air intake tube finished up today........After looking at the way that GM engineered the fitting that connected to the valve cover vents to the inlet tube........It seemed to me it was like a mini chamber so any residual anything would go to the bottom of the vessel......so......I made a mini version out of aluminum for the Vapor to flow thru, I probably made it more complicated than it needed to be ......but.......What's new.....LOL....

Well..........Can't put it off any longer......I bought an American Autowire Classic kit....Nice kit but they provide for every conceivable option and variable......so....I have probably 1/2 the wires that aren't going to be used ,.....so.....I have to sort all that stuff out.....First picture is what I started with this AM............the other pic is later in the day.....should have it pretty much sorted out and neatened up in a couple more hours......,.So far.....everything works like it should........LOL

Making a little progress every day.....I have pretty much all the basic wiring in place and fit.....all the loose wires you see left are mostly for all the Dakota Digital senders and sensors.......Looks like a lot but its only a couple of hours to get everything cut, fit and installed.........

I have 95% of the wiring completed....Dakota digital senders and modules all hooked up .....I powered up the Vintage Air system and ran it thru it's calibration procedure.......everything worked.......LOL........I just have to finish up wiring up the Radio wiring for the speakers......add the rest of the duct hoses for the A/C and put the dash back in.........I sure wish those wheels would show up..........As it is right now if I put fuel in the tank it should start right up........After the rims get here and I can move the car around ........the last thing is the exhaust system....
