It runs.

I am STILL waiting on a water pump and radiator hoses. Those should be at NAPA in the morning.

Curiously, it will not idle with the EGR valve position sensor unplugged and the MAP sensor hooked to vacuum. It'll start and rev fine but with a vacuum signal over 10" and the EGR sensor out of the loop, it cuts fuel and dies. Sucking on the MAP hose and maintaining 10", it will idle and run.

So, the EGR position sensor is now plugged in and laying on the back of the intake manifold.

I had to order some exhaust manifold ball flanges since I'm running the HO tubular manifolds but I should be able to move it under its own power around noon tomorrow and get a paying job in the shop!
