Thanks for the pics. Yes the waterpump goes into a cylinder and this hose that is on mine comes out of the back of that cylinder. I will put up some pics tomorrow!!! Of everything that I have!!!
 
So I took a pic of mine to see whats what. Yeah, he took the valley pan cover out and there is a hose under there.

So it seems you just have a rebuilt 93 motor. OK, easy enough. Yeah it will all bolt together as long as you have the IMRC boxes. Everything else is the same and the parts that are different such as the plenum and valve covers have been changed over. You are good to go sounds like.
BTW, if he swaped in the whol k-member from a 93 then chances are you have the 93's steering rack which was the quickest ratio one. :)

:D intake manifold runner control.

Why do Gen 2 people want to do IMRC deletes?
Only time I see people do it is when they do a Cobra plenum swap or a blower. On a blown application like mine they are a hinderence so I no longer have them but on a turbo or centri then they still are helpfull untill the snail spools.
IDK why CObra plenum swap people do it. The Cobra intake hurts the bottom end already and deleting the IMRC hurts it even more.
 
Ok, that was just something that has always puzzled me. I'll admit, when it come to going that deep into the engine, I'm stupid! I have never seen the top of the engine with the valley pan removed so that's why I had no idea of a black hose but since you elaborated on that, now I know that it's there. Just another reason I don't get into modding. I'd end up blowing up another car lol.
 
Laser thanks for the pics. I have since taken the engine loose from the k/member, because the original one is still in the car. I did'nt know that about the faster steering ratio in the '93 steering rack so I might switch those. I decided to use the k/member on the car because, the one that the engine was on has been converted to shocks and springs and the car still has good air ride on it. He gave me a bunch of parts with this car! He had a Thunderbird S/C and he gave me a Sway Bar, an extra rear-end w/ positive traction and 3.27gears! Plus he gave me the tranny that came with the car (79k) and the one he got with the engine which was rebuilt when the engine was so it has 15k on the rebuild. Than he asked me if I wanted two superchargers from the supercoupe so I got them too!!! I will be posting a thread with the tranny for sale the one that came out of the car with 79k miles if anyone needs it let me know.


P.S. We dont need anymore blown up Mark Viii's around here Steve. Can't make Huntsville look bad!!! lol
 
Swapping to a 93 rack would be nice, but you'll need the k member for that, because of the bolt holes
