    m50 intake and cooling hoses

    i need to know if you guys can help me out with where all the hoses from the coolant lines and intake manifold vacuum lines go.
    i was not the one that took apart the m50 from donor car so im kinda figuring it out as i go.
    ive looked online for pictures and such, but they are not very detailed or just an overview of the engine bay.
    if you guys could help me out with pictures or anything that would be great help.

    thanks

        What most people do in hot climate is eliminate the throttle body coolant lines. Just helping, here, no need to hate me Luis.

                  One connects to the intake the other one connects to the valve cover.

                      it connects to the adapter(?) on the front right corner of the valve cover?

                        hey man that black canister that u have a valce with a connection on it, is that ur charcoal cannister? (i think thats what its called) can you let me know how your routing your fuel lines?
                        theres one short line that was connected to my fuel filter, then one coming up right next to it, then a longer one that i followed all the way back to my fuel tank it seems to make its way up the side of it.

                            The hose on the back of the head goes to the bottom line on your heater core . The other goes to the top.

                            Great pics, Excellent post Denis!

                              Yes you do.
